3*17=51.

In fact it's easy to tell if a two digit number is not prime.
- If it ends in 0,2,4,6,8 then it's divisible by 2.
- If it ends in 0,5 then it's divisible by 5.
- If you sum its digits and that is divisible by 3, then your number is divisible by 3. In this case 5+1=6 is divisible by 3.
- Only three left to remember 49 = 7*7, 77 = 7*11 and 91= 7*13.

The rest are primes. Some people say that 91 is the number most often misquoted as a prime.

51 is not a prime number, because 51 is divisible by 3 and 17....
