The set of natural numbers contains the prime numbers.
The set of prime numbers doesn't contain the natural numbers, but every natural number > 1 can be generated/described as a product of prime numbers (fundamental theorem of arithmetic).
Maybe my terminology was incorrect, I'm not good at maths, but that's what I meant.
