39 is composite... --------------------- A prime number is a whole number greater than 1, whose only two whole-number factors are 1 and itself.
A composite number is any whole number that isn't a prime number or 1. A prime number is a number that is only divisible itself and 1.
A prime number has only 2 factors which are 1 and itself. Composite numbers are everything else except 1 and 0. 1 and 0 are neither prime, nor composite. 36 is square and composite.
It isn't. A composite number is any whole number that isn't prime, 1, or 0. A prime number is a number that can only be divided by itself or 1 to get a whole number. There is no whole number that you can divide 41 by to get another whole number (besides 1 and 41). Therefore, it is a prime number.
6 is a composite number. You can divide it by 3 and get 2. A composite number can be divided by a number and get another number out. 29 is prime because it can only be divided by 1 and 29 to get a whole number answer.

Neither. The concept of prime and composite applies only to positive whole numbers [greater than 1].
Yes and also 0 is not considered to be composite or prime although it is an even number.
Yes, by definition a composite number is a number that is divisible by another whole number besides one and itself. The only other whole number that nine is divisible by is three. Hope it helped!

No, consider the number 4 or 16 or 36 for example

391 is a composite number. 391 = 17 * 23 A prime number is a whole number that only has two factors which are itself and one. A composite number has factors in addition to one and itself.
