What is the sum of 1/p, where p is prime? There are infinitely many prime numbers, but as they become larger they contribute smaller and smaller amounts to the sum. So, does that sum converge or diverge? In this video I want to share a really cool proof that they diverge that will play on the harmonic series and the geometric series - to famous series from calculus - as well as prime factorization to prove that indeed this must diverge.
