  "abstract": "Counting the number of prime numbers up to a certain natural number and describing the asymptotic behavior of such a counting function has been studied by famous mathematicians like Gauss, Legendre, Dirichlet, and Euler. The prime number theorem determines that such asymptotic behavior is similar to the asymptotic behavior of the number divided by its natural logarithm. In this paper, we take advantage of a multiplicative representation of a number and the properties of the logarithm function to express the prime number theorem in terms of primorial numbers, and n-primorial totative numbers. A primorial number is the multiplication of the first n prime numbers while n-primorial totatives are the numbers that are coprime to the n-th primorial number. By doing this we can define several different functions that can be used to approximate the behavior of the prime counting function asymptotically.",
