Abstract

Integers are expressed in the form nR where R represents the right-end-digits and nrepresents the digits to the left of Rn can be classified by the sequences {3t}, {3t + 1}, {3t+ 2}. When n = 3t + 2, no primes with R = 1 or 7 can be formed with these n; when n = 3tno primes can be formed with R = 3 or 9, but when n = 3t + 1, all REDs can form a prime within the constraints of imbedded sequences.
