Solution: Kth Smallest Prime Fraction

Explore how to find the kth smallest prime fraction formed from a sorted array using the K-way merge pattern. Learn to efficiently manage fractions with a min-heap and understand the step-by-step algorithm along with its time and space complexity. This lesson helps you implement a reliable and optimized solution for this specific fraction sorting problem.

We'll cover the following...

Statement

You are given a sorted array of unique integers, arr, which includes the number 11 and other prime numbers. You are also given an integer kk.

For every index ii and jj where 0≤i<j<0 \leq i < j < arr.length, you can form a fraction by taking the number at index ii as the numerator and the number at index jj ...
