Erdős problem 1074

Similarly, if PP is the set of all primes pp such that there exists an mm with p≢1(modm)p\not\equiv 1\pmod{m} such that m!+10(modp)m! + 1 \equiv 0\pmod{p}, then does limP[1,x]π(x) \lim\frac{|P\cap[1, x]|}{\pi(x)} exist?

Retained formal statement8 of 12

Pillai [Pi30] raised the question of whether there exist any primes in PP. This was answered by Chowla, who noted that, for example, 14!+118!+10(mod23)14! + 1 \equiv 18! + 1 \equiv 0 \pmod{23}.
