ALGORITHM
Step 1 − Loop from 2 to n/2, i as loop variable
Step 2 − if number is divisible, print “The number is not prime” and flag = 1;
Step 3 − if flag != 1, then print “The number is prime”.
Step 4 − Exit.
PROGRAM
number=53 i=2 flag=0 while test $i -le `expr $number / 2` do if test `expr $number % $i` -eq 0 then flag=1 fi i=`expr $i + 1` done if test $flag -eq 1 then echo "The number is Not Prime" else echo "The number is Prime" Fi
