Prime Numbers Up to 200: Full List and How to Find Them

Prime Numbers Up to 200: Full List and How to Find Them — illustration
In short: There are 46 prime numbers up to 200, from 2 to 199. Exactly 15 pairs of them are twin primes (differing by 2).

The list

RangePrimes
1–502, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47
51–10053, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97
101–150101, 103, 107, 109, 113, 127, 131, 137, 139, 149
151–200151, 157, 163, 167, 173, 179, 181, 191, 193, 197, 199

Count per block: 15, 10, 10, 11.

The Sieve of Eratosthenes

List 2 to 200. Keep 2 and cross out its multiples. Move to the next uncrossed number, 3, keep it and cross out its multiples. Repeat. You only need to sieve with primes up to √200 ≈ 14, i.e. 2, 3, 5, 7, 11 and 13; everything left is prime.

Quick primality test

Test divisibility by primes up to the square root. For 191: √191 ≈ 13.8, and none of 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13 divide it, so it is prime. Confirm with the prime factorization calculator: 191 is prime.

187 looks prime, but is it?
Answer187 = 11 × 17
  • Divisors: 4
  • Sum of divisors: 216
Step-by-step working 3 steps
  1. 1
    Divide by the smallest prime that fits, again and again
    187 ÷ 11 = 17
    17 ÷ 17 = 1

    Stop when the quotient reaches 1.

  2. 2
    Collect the primes
    187 = 11 × 17
  3. 3
    Count the divisors
    (2 × 2) = 4 divisors

    Add 1 to each exponent and multiply.

Facts worth knowing

  • 2 is the only even prime.
  • 1 is not prime.
  • Every whole number above 1 has exactly one prime factorization.
  • There are infinitely many primes.
