This post explains the TCS CodeVita problem Prime Time Again step by step: the problem statement, input and output format, constraints, a sample test case and a working solution in Java that you can study and run.

Problem Description
Here on earth, our 24-hour day is composed of two parts, each of 12hours. Each hour in each part has a corresponding hour in the other partseparated by 12 hours: the hour essentially measures the duration sincethe start of the day part. For example, 1 hour in the first part of the day is
equivalent to 13, which is 1 hour into the second part of the day.Now, consider the equivalent hours that are both prime numbers. We have 3 such instances for a 24-hour 2-part day:
5~17
7~19
11~23
Accept two natural numbers D, P >1 corresponding respectively to number
of hours per day and number of parts in a day separated by a space. D
should be divisible by P, meaning that the number of hours per part (D/P)
should be a natural number. Calculate the number of instances of
equivalent prime hours. Output zero if there is no such instance.
Note that we require each equivalent hour in each part in a day to be a prime number.
Example
Input: 24 2
Output:3 (We have 3 instances of equivalent prime hours: 5~17, 7~19 and
11~23.)
Constraints
10 <= D < 500
2 <= P < 50
Input
Single line consists of two space separated integers, D and P
corresponding to number of hours per day and number of parts in a day
respectively.
Output
Output must be a single number, corresponding to the number of
instances of equivalent prime number, as described above
Time Limit
1
Examples
Example 1
Input
36 3
Output
2
Explanation
In the given test case D = 36 and P = 3
Duration of each day part = 12
2~14~X
3~15~X
5~17~29 – instance of equivalent prime hours
7~19~31 – instance of equivalent prime hours
11~23~X
Hence the answers is 2.
Example 2
Input
49 7
Output
0
Explanation
Duration of each day part = 7
2~9~X~23~X~37~X
3~X~17~X~31~X~X
5~X~19~X~X~X~47
7~X~X~X~X~X~X
Hence there are no equivalent prime hours.
