At a very first glance this question looks tough and requires lot of calculation.. However,
keep in mind that you really don't need to calculate/find the actual nos. We have to just see
whether we will be able to find the no with given information...

Stmt 1- We have to find 100th Prime no > 2 - Can be done - SUFF

Stmt 2- We have to find no of prime nos between 2 and 3912 - Can be done - SUFF
