prime numbers are numbers that can only be divided by one and itself. Composite numbers can be divided by more than one and itself.
The relationship between prime numbers and composite numbers is that they are antonyms or opposites of each other. A natural number, is either prime or composite, but it can not be both. Prime numbers have only two factors, one and itself. Composite numbers are whole numbers that are not prime numbers, which means that they have factors other than one and itself.
prime: numbers that can only divided by 1 and itself (except 1) composite: numbers had others factors except 1 and itself 1 - neither prime or composite
The sum of two prime numbers will be composite unless one of the prime numbers is 2.
If your talking about prime numbers, prime numbers are numbers that are only divisible by one and themselves. Composite numbers are numbers divisible by more than one and itself. Like 3 is prime because it is only divisible by 1 and itself. 6 is composite because it is divisible by 1,2,3, and itself.
All even numbers are composite numbers except for 2 itself which is a prime number.
No composite numbers are prime. A composite number is a number that can be made by multiplying other numbers. A prime number is made only by one and itself. Therefore no number can be both prime and composite
Prime numbers have two factors, composite numbers have more than two.
Prime numbers only 1 and itself can go in to it composite 1 itself and other factors therefore 260 is a composite number
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. So 'what is the same', is that both prime and composite numbers have 1 as a factor, and itself as a factor.
Prime is when the # is divisible by 1 and itself. Composite is when it is divisible by more #s than 1 or itself. 2 is the only even # that is prime.
Composite numbers are divisible by prime numbers.
