Solution

Expressing 51 as a sum of three different prime numbers

Prime Number: A number that has only two factors ,1 and the number itself.

We need to write all the prime numbers between 1and51

Prime number:2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23,29,31,37,41,43,47

By hit and trial, we observe that

51=11+17+23

Hence, 11,17and23 are three different prime numbers whose sum is 51
