Prime numbers are those that are not composite. The only prime numbers in this range are 3, 5, and 7.
There are 3 composite numbers between 20 and 25. They are 21, 22, and 24.
There are 3 composite numbers between 35 and 40. They are 36, 38, and 39.
Including 40 and 50 there are 8 composite numbers because 41, 43 and 47 are prime numbers.
Prime numbers: 2 3 5 and 7 Composite numbers: 4 6 8 9 and 10 Note that 1 is neither a prime or a composite number
Three composite numbers are 1 3 6
They are those that have more than two factors in them.
The prime numbers between 1 and 10 are 2, 3, 5, and 7.1 is just 1 - it is not prime or composite.4, 6, 8, 9, and 10 are composite.2, 3, 5, 7
8, 10, and 12 are 3 composite numbers. They are composite because they ahve more than 2 factors.
Let's try 99 and 98! 99 is 3 x 3 x 11 and 98 is 2 x 7 x 7 98 and 99 are consecutive numbers, composite numbers, less than 100 and there is no prime numbers between them!
The 8th prime number is 19. The 12th prime number is 37. There are 17 numbers between 19 and 37. There are three prime numbers between the 8th and 12th prime numbers (the 9th, 10th, and 11th). So, there are 17 - 3 = 14 composite numbers.
Since numbers are infinite, there is no such thing as the largest composite number.
There are no three composite numbers that multiply to 1001.
