prime number is a number which only can be divided by itself to obtain an exact value which is 1..

Every number greater than 1 is a possible prime number, until you test it.
The maximum possible 3 digit prime number is 999, but when tested, it turns out not to be prime after all.
The maximum actual 3 digit prime number is 997.
