The smallest three-digit prime number is :

A. 101

B. 103

C. 107

D. None of these

Answer: Option A

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Clearly, 100 is divisible by 2. So, 100 is not prime.
(101) < (11)2 and prime numbers less than 11 are 2, 3, 5, 7
Clearly, 101 is not divisible by any of 2, 3, 5 and 7
Hence, 101 is the smallest 3-digit prime number.
