A prime number is a whole number that has only two distinct factors: 1 and the number itself. A composite number has at least three distinct factors.
What is the smallest composite number that has 3 distinct prime factors?
Distinct would mean they are all different, so take the 3 lowest primes and multiply them: 2*3*5 = 30
Why is 2 the smallest prime number?
Starting from beginning we see that 0 has infinite factors so it is a composite number and 1 is neither prime nor composite. The next number is 2 which has only two factors so it is the smallest Prime number.
What is the smallest composite number?

What is the smallest composite number that has the five smallest prime numbers as factors?
It is 2 × 3 × 5 × 7 × 11 = 2310
What do you call a number that's neither prime or composite?
One.By definition numbers are:prime if they have only 2 distinct factors (namely 1 and the number itself);composite if they have 3 or more distinct factorsThe important thing to note is the word distinct. The number 1 has only 1 distinct factor, namely 1; thus it is neither a prime (the first prime number is 2) nor composite.
