36 is a composite number because it has more than two factors
36 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.
They are both composite because they are even. They are composite numbers because 36 can be formed by 6x6 and 72 can be formed by 6x6x2. Since prime numbers means that they are only divisible by 1 and itself, the numbers are not prime numbers. Also, any number greater than 1 is either a composite or prime number, so they are composite numbers.
36 is a composite number because it has more than two factors whereas prime numbers have only two factors.
