5.12 THRICE UNFACTORISED<br />
5.12.1 Richard England<br />
I have found a four‐digit number such that it is impossible<br />
<strong>to</strong> fac<strong>to</strong>rise the numbers formed by its first digit or last<br />
digit or first two digits or middle two digits or last two<br />
digits or first three digits or last three digits or all four digits.<br />
In other words all those eight numbers are prime<br />
except that either or both of the single‐digit numbers may<br />
be unity.<br />
Harry and Tom have also found such a four‐digit number.<br />
The four‐digit numbers that we have found are all different;<br />
but Harryʹs number uses the same digits as Tomʹs<br />
number, though in a different order. Which four‐digit<br />
number have I found<br />
