Holy crap, you're right. And if you add the individual digits of those primes together, the result is 214.

You, sir have destroyed my faith in the infallibility of the Internet. I'm going to go get drunk, now, and mourn my shattered illusions!

Wow! That's the sum of the digits of the first 100 primes! Congrats!

Also, 1111 = 11 * 101 in base 10 and in base 2, where 11 and 101 are both prime in base 10 and base 2!

Source: http://primes.utm.edu/curios/page.php/1111.html

PS: I checked the base 10/base 2 curiosity. In base 10 notation, that would be 15 = 3 x 5. I'll leave to someone more ambitious to check whether 1111 = the sum of the first hundred primes!

I just went through the laborious process of adding together all the individual digits of the first 100 prime numbers. The website has it right. The sum of the digits of the first 100 prime numbers is 1111.

My faith in the infallibility of the World Wide Web is restored. Hallelujah! Gore be praised!

But don't make me do that again!

And I just added them up (but not that laboriously using Excel) and came to 1060.

The sum of all the primes less than 100 (that is, all the primes from 2 up to and including 97) is 1060.

The sum of the digits of the first 100 prime numbers (that would be all the digits in the prime numbers from 2 up to and including 541) is 1111.

The sum of the digits of the prime numbers, not the prime numbers themselves, are being added. For example, the sum of the digits of the prime number 541 would be 10 (5 + 4 + 1).

Ah, so it is the way you read the words. You are saying that you added the first 100 prime numbers together and got this huge number. Then you added all of the digits together of this huge number and got 1111. Wonder how someone figured that one out? They must have had a lot of time on their hands.

Ah...my apologies, I misread that.

That does indeed sound like a laborious task and one I'm quite happy to take your word for
