Since 200 is a very small range, the prime counting fraction will have a high percentage error, so we can just count them. There are 25 + 21 prime numbers from 1 to 100 and 101 to 200 respectively. giving 46 \boxed{46} in total


Note: For higher numbers, this won't be practical, hence a prime-number counting function is defined which reduces the error percentage. Jump to the table from here , it's an interesting read
