The question seems to be asking for the prime number that is closest to but less than both 35 and 60. The number in question has to be a prime and also has to be smaller than 35 since anything smaller than 35 will also be smaller than 60.

The prime numbers less than 35 are: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, and 31.

Since 31 is the largest prime number less than 35 (and also less than 60), it is the smallest prime number that is smaller than both 35 and 60. 31 is your answer.
no not the closest

Apologies for misunderstanding your question. If you are looking for the smallest prime number that is a factor of both 35 and 60, you should first find the prime factors of each number.

The prime factors of 35 are:
35 = 5 × 7

The prime factors of 60 are:
60 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 (or 2² × 3 × 5)

Now, we look for the smallest prime that is common to both lists. The prime numbers 5 and 7 are factors of 35, but only 5 is a factor of 60. Since we are interested in the number that factors into both 35 and 60, the smallest prime number that is a factor of both is 5.
