%N Smaller of pair of twin primes whose average is lcm(1,...,m) for some m.

%C Known values of m such that lcm(1,...,m) is a twin prime mean value are as follows: {3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 19, 20, 21, 22, 47, 48}.

%C No more such primes occurs below m < 2000.

%C No more such primes occurs below m < 30000. - _Amiram Eldar_, Aug 18 2024

%e 419 and 421 are twin primes, (419 + 421)/2 = 420 = lcm(1,2,3,4,5,6,7).
