In a set of primes, each digit from 1 through 9 is used exactly once in the set, and 0 is not used. What is the possible sum of these primes?

Respuesta :

We want to find the sum of a set of prime numbers such that the digits from 1 to 9 are used only once.

That sum is equal to 1,350.

First, the digits that are primes in our range can be used alone (but we can also use in a composition if we need to).

These are:

2, 3, 5, and 7.

So now we need to make primes with the other ones:

1, 4, 6, 8, and 9.

Because all primes different than 2 end with an odd number, we can make only one or two with the digits that we have left.

To use the 8 and the 1, we can write the prime number:

821  (this implies that we don't use the number 2 alone).

Then the digits that are left are:

4, 6, and 9.

We know that 467 is a prime number, then we can use the 7 and write that number.

Then we just have the 9 left.

knowing that 59 is a prime number, we can finally use all our digits.

Then our set will be:

{3, 59, 467, 821}

The sum of these numbers is:

3 + 59 + 467 + 821 = 1,350
