(C) prime number is a natural number greater than $1$ that has no positive divisors other than $1$ and itself.To find the largest two-digit prime number,we check the numbers starting from $99$ downwards:$1$. $99$ is divisible by $3, 9, 11, 33$,so it is not prime.$2$. $98$ is an even number,so it is divisible by $2$,thus not prime.$3$. $97$ has no divisors other than $1$ and $97$. Therefore,$97$ is a prime number.Thus,the largest two-digit prime number is $97$.
