Best Answer

in math a Prime number is a number with only 2 factors. the factors are the number 1 and the number itself. 1 is not a prime number nor composite. 2 is a prime number because its only factors are 2 and 1. any other even number will be composite because 2 and some other number will always equal an even number.
