Write a Program in Java to fill a 2D array with the first 'mxn' prime numbers, where 'm' is the number of rows and 'n' is the number of columns.

For example:
If rows = 4 and columns = 5, then the result should be:

235711
1317192329
3137414347
5359616771

    public static void main(String args[]) {
        Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("Enter number of rows (m): ");
        int m = in.nextInt();
        System.out.print("Enter number of columns (n): ");
        int n = in.nextInt();

        int arr[][] = new int[m][n];
        int r = 0, c = 0;
        int total = m * n;
        int count = 0;

            for (int j = 1; j <= i; j++) {
                if (i % j == 0) {
                    div++;
                }
            }
