There is no any formula to get prime number you have to find them all and count.

If you could give any formula the you are supposed to get Turing award.

Dear friends,

Share any formula for "calculating the number of a prime number between any 2 numbers (between 5 and 5000)".

If u have find prime no. u apply a general method but it is not appropiate and nt valid in some case:

3k+2 if k is odd no.
3k+1 if k is even no.

for ex,3*1+2=5
3*2+1=7

but there is error in when 3*8+1=25
& 3*11+2=35

so if u have another general method to find prime no.
