Easily convinced friends, your computer, and various internet sources not held accountable to any standard of accuracy may assert that 2011 is a prime number, but it would be foolish to blindly accept the claims of uninformed sheeple and agenda-driven pundits. If you’re interested in discovering the truth about this important issue and want to verify the primality yourself by hand, it should be sufficient to check the following equations:
2 × 1005 + 1 = 2011
3 × 670 + 1 = 2011
5 × 402 + 1 = 2011
7 × 287 + 2 = 2011
11 × 182 + 9 = 2011
13 × 154 + 9 = 2011
17 × 118 + 5 = 2011
19 × 105 + 16 = 2011
23 × 87 + 10 = 2011
29 × 69 + 10 = 2011
31 × 64 + 27 = 2011
37 × 54 + 13 = 2011
41 × 49 + 2 = 2011
43 × 46 + 33 = 2011
45 × 45 = 2025
Don’t immediately accept what you’re told! Always check the facts.
