Oh, dude, of course! A composite number is just a number that can be broken down into smaller numbers, like a LEGO set. And prime factors are the prime numbers that multiply together to give you that composite number. So, like, yeah, you can totally factor a composite number into prime factors. It's like breaking down a complicated recipe into its basic ingredients.

A composite number is the product of its prime factors. For example, prime factors of 242 = 2 x 11 x 11 and prime factors of 70 = 2 x 5 x 7.
