1 is evenly divisible only by 1 and itself (also 1). In that respect it is like a prime. However, if 1 were a prime then the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic - the Unique Prime Factorisation Theorem would fail - and with it much of arithmetic would become invalid.

A Prime number has only 2 factors which are 1 and itself. Composite numbers are everything else except 1 and 0. 1 and 0 have a different name.
It doesn't have enough factors to qualify.

1 only has 1 factor. A prime number has to have 2 factors which are 1 and itself. Composite numbers are everything else except 1 and 0. 1 and 0 have a different name.
Wrong number of factors.
1 is neither a prime nor a composite number because it has only one factor (itself (1)). The definition of a prime number is a number that has the factor of one and itself, so one is not prime. The definition of a composite number is a number that has more than 2 factors, so one is not composite. One is a special number.
ANSWER: One is not a composite number.One is not also a prime number.
Composite
The number 1 is neither a prime nor a composite number.
It is a prime number, and therefore not a composite number.251 is prime.

A composite number is basically one that is NOT a prime - a composite number is a product of two or more primes.
ANSWER: One is not a composite number.One is not also a prime number.
Composite
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
The number 1 is neither a prime nor a composite number.
It is a prime number, and therefore not a composite number.251 is prime.
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 is a composite number, it is divisible by at least one prime number.
13 prime 63 composite 61 prime 31 prime Well the question should have been either, Which one of these numbers is not a composite number? Or, Which one of these numbers is not a prime number?
a prime number is a number that you can plus by one
No, a composite number can't have more than one prime factorization.
