75 composite numbers are there till 100. 100-25=75. Composite numbers are numbers greater than 1 but not prime numbers.
100 is divisible by 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50, and 100, so it is a composite number.
The smallest three digit composite number is 100, and the largest two digit number is 99. 100-99=1.
It is if there is any number that goes into it evenly, besides 1 and 100. The factors of 100 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50, and 100. It looks like 100 is composite.
