The Prime Factors of 2023

As we near the end of the year 2023, we are running out of time to consider this weighty question: What are the prime factors of 2023?

2023 = 7 x 17 x 17.

A couple of days I drove from Bluff Park to Meadowbrook, taking Highway 459 on the way and taking Highway 119 on the way back home. What are the chances that all three of these numbers (2023, 459 and 119) are divisible by 17?

459 = 17 x 27 and 119 = 7 x 17.

What are the chances that more than 1/17 of all bgonliners would care?
