Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ∅

The only natural number less than 2 is 1, assuming the usual positive-natural-number convention. However, 1 is not prime: a prime number has exactly two distinct positive divisors, whereas 1 has only one positive divisor. Thus no natural number satisfies both conditions, so A is the empty set, ∅.
