$6n+1$ and $6n-1$ prime format - Mathematics Stack Exchange
I recently stumbled upon a fact that all prime numbers past $3$ are of the form either $6n-1$ or $6n+1$. Is it true? at least for numbers less than $10^9$. And does it cover all primes?

Jan 24, 2015 · Prove there are infinitely many primes of the form 6n − 1 6 n 1 with the following: (i) Prove that the product of two numbers of the form 6n + 1 6 n + 1 is also of that form. That is, show …
Show that every prime $p>3$ is either of the form $6n+1$ or of the …
We have shown that an integer m> 3 m> 3 of the form 6n 6 n or 6n + 2 6 n + 2 or 6n + 3 6 n + 3 or 6n + 4 6 n + 4 cannot be prime. That leaves as the only candidates for primality greater than 3 3 integers …
Prove that there are infinitely many primes of the form $6n + 5$
5 Note that the only primes not of the form 6n ± 1 6 n ± 1 are 2 2 and 3 3. A number of the form 6n + 5 6 n + 5 is not divisible by 2 2 or 3 3.
