Why do you think the expression
i % primenumbers makes sense when primenumbers is a list? a % b means "give me the remainder when dividing a by b" and division is done with single numbers, not lists of numbers.

then how do you divide by every number in a list

How do you normally do something with every item in a list?

recall them

What do you mean by "recall"? That's not a programming term.

primenumbers = [2,3,5,7,11]
for i in primenumbers:
print(i)Output:2
3
5
7
11
