The numbers before

  • The previous odd number, 21, is not a prime number. It is divisible by 3 and 7.
  • The odd number previous to 21 is 19. 19 is a prime number.
    • 19 and 23 are four numbers apart; therefore, they are cousin primes.
  • The odd number previous to 19 is 17. 17 is a prime number.
    • 17 and 23 are six numbers apart; therefore, they are sexy primes.

The numbers after

  • The next odd number, 25, is not a prime number. It is a square number, being 52 = 25.
  • 27, the odd number following 25, is not a prime number. It is a cube number, being 33 = 27.
  • 29, the odd number following 27, is a prime number.
    • 23 and 29 are six numbers apart; therefore, they are sexy primes.
  • Due to the fact that 23 is not part of any twin numbers, it is considered an isolated prime.
