A Prime number is one with only 2 factors (one and itself). A composite number is any number which is not prime. 96 is even and therefore divides by 2. This means it has more factors than 1 and itself, it also has 2. Therefore, 96 has to be a composite number.

It's prime factors in all are 2, 2, 2, 2, 2 and 3.
