When a composite number is expressed as a product of its prime factors, the prime factorization of the composite number has been performed.
A number is prime when it only has one and itself as factors is prime. Therefore, to tell if a number is prime or composite simply find it's factors. If it has more than two factors than it is not a prime number, it is composite.
Composite. Its prime factors are 23 and 31.
A prime number has only two factors, one and the number itself. A composite number has more than two factors. Factors can be either prime or composite.
A prime number has two factors, a composite number has more than two.
A prime number has only two factors whereas a composite number has more than two factors
Composite A prime number is a number that has only two factors (itself and one) A composite number is a number that has more than two factors.
If it has only two factors then it is a prime number but if it has more than two factors then it is a composite number
Yes. Any composite number can be expressed as a product of prime factors.
ok well i am in prime and composite in math class and this is how: If the number is a prime then it can only have 2 factors. If it has 3 or more it is a composite number. Say 25 has a lot of factors so it is a composite number. And if 1 has only 1 factor then it is a prime number. And there you have prime and composite.
Prime numbers have two factors, composite numbers have more than two.
It is prime, it has no factors.
