2 is the smallest Prime number. Numbers can't have factors larger than themselves. Zero and one aren't large enough to have prime factors.
What else can I help you with?
Do all numbers have at least one prime factor?
All whole numbers except for -1, 0 and 1 have at least one prime factor.
What is the same between prime and composite numbers?
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.
Why are the numbers 0 and 1 neither prime nor composite?
0 has no factors and 1 only has 1 factor which is 1.
Is 4 a prime factor of the composite number 36?
4 is a factor of 36, but it is not a prime number.
What are the prime numbers less than 0?
There are no negative prime numbers.
Do all numbers have at least one prime factor?
All whole numbers except for -1, 0 and 1 have at least one prime factor.
What is the same between prime and composite numbers?
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.
How can 0 be neither prime or composite numbers?
0 has every number as a factor. 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.
Are there more prime or composite numbers explain?
There are more composite numbers. 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.
How can you tell that 32 and 95 are not prime numbers?
32 is not a prime because 2 is a factor of all even numbers. 95 is not a prime because all numbers greater than 5 that end in a 5 or 0 are composite numbers.
Why are the numbers 0 and 1 neither prime nor composite?
0 has no factors and 1 only has 1 factor which is 1.
How do you figure out prime and composite?
Factor them. Prime numbers have two factors, composite numbers have more than two.
What is the prime and composite and how you determine?
Factor them. Prime numbers have two factors, composite numbers have more than two.
Is 0 a prime factor?
No. The smallest prime factor is 2.
What is the greatest common factor of three odd prime numbers?
A prime number is an integer, a, that can only be expressed as a * 1 = a; a > 0. It has no other factors save for 1 and itself. Thus, the only common factor of 2 or more prime numbers is 1.
Are 0 and 1 prime numbers?
No, neither are primes. 1 has only 1 factor (not two, and therefore isn't prime), while 0 has an infinite amount (and so definitely isn't prime).
Identify the number as prime or composite?
Factor it. Prime numbers have two factors, composite numbers have more than two.
