%N The second-smallest prime of the form (p-prime(n))/(prime(n)-1), where p is also prime.

%e For n = 1, prime(n) = 2, and the ratios generated are (3-2)/1 = 1 (not prime), (5-2)/1 = 3 (prime, first), (7-2)/1 = 5 (prime, second), and so a(1) = 5.

%t a[n_, r_] := Module[{p = Prime[n], q, rat, c = 0}, q = p; While[c < r, q = NextPrime[q]; If[PrimeQ[rat = (q - p)/(p - 1)], c++]]; rat]; Table[a[n, 2], {n, 1, 100}] (* _Amiram Eldar_, Jun 29 2024 *)
