the first 10 are 1 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 9 , 11 , 13 , 15 , 17 , 19. 1, 3, 5, 7, 11, 17, 19 can not be divided by anything but 1 and it's self

1 is not prime but 13 is

First ten odd positive numbers are: 1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15,17,19. Now count out the prime numbers in the above mentioned list which is 7. Concluding that out of first ten positive odd numbers, we have seven prime numbers.

the first 10 positive odd numbers : 1;3;5;7;9;11;13;15;17;19 prime numbers : ...3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19..... => "7" of these numbers are prime
