let $p$ be a prime number and $n$ be a positive integer. the graph $g_p(n)$ is a graph with vertex set $[n]={1,2,ldots ,n}$, in which there is an arc from $u$ to $v$ if and only if $uneq v$ and $pnmid u+v$. in this paper it is shown that $g_p(n)$ is a perfect graph. in addition, an explicit formula for the chromatic number of such graph is given.
