%N Lesser of the greatest twin prime pair with n digits.
%C Sum of reciprocals = 0.215331408...
%C Also the numerator of the largest prime-over-prime fraction less than 1 that is the ratio of two primes both less than 10^n. - _Cino Hilliard_, Feb 13 2006 [edited by _Jon E. Schoenfield_, Dec 01 2019]
