What is the difference between factors and prime factors?

A factor of a integer is an integer that divides the second integer into a third integer exactly; i.e. A is a factor of B if B/A is exactly C, where all of A, B and C are integers. A prime factor is a factor as above, but is also a prime number. This means that the only factors of that factor are one and the number itself; i.e. A is a prime factor of B if B/A is exactly C andthe only factors of A are 1 and A.


Why is 1 and 0 nor prime or composite?

A prime number has two positive integer factors, itself and 1. The number 0 has no positive integer factors, and is therefore not prime. The number 1 has just a single positive integer factor, and once again, is not prime.

What are the numbers that are not prime or composite?

A prime number is a number with two positive integer factors, while a composite number has more than two positive integer factors. Since the number 0 has no positive integer factors, and the number 1 has just one positive integer factor (itself), neither of these are prime.
