A number is prime when it only has one and itself as factors is prime. Therefore, to tell if a number is prime or composite simply find it's factors. If it has more than two factors than it is not a prime number, it is composite.
A composite number is a number that can be divided by multiple other integer numbers other then 1 and the number itself. For instance 4,567,278 can be divided by 2.
It is a composite number.
It is a composite number.
It is a composite number.
4567278 is not a prime number because it has more than two factors and so therefore it is a composite number.
First, you have to know the difference between Prime Numbers and Composite Numbers. Prime Numbers are numbers that has only two factors: 1 and itself. Composite Numbers are numbers that have factors other than 1 and itself. Composite numbers are always even, with only one exception: number 2. Two is the ONLY EVEN PRIME NUMBER. Never will you encounter another even prime number because it will always have AT LEAST 3 factors. # ITSELF. # ONE. # TWO. Now that we know the difference between Prime and Composite, we can answer your question. 4,567,278 is an even number. It is divisible by itself, one, two and probably more numbers. Therefore, it is COMPOSITE!
It is even and therefore composite.
You cannot. If a number is even - other than 2 - then it is a composite number. However, if it is odd, it is not easily possible to tell whether it is prime or composite.
It is a composite number because it's an even number and it has more than two factors
it is a composite number because you can tell from the 8 that it is an even number, and even numbers can always be divided.
A number is composite if it has more than two factors. Once you find a third, you're done.
A good way to instantly tell if a number is prime or composite is to learn some tricks to tell if a number divides by certain numbers. For instance, if a number is even, we know it is composite as it must be divisible by 2. If a number ends in 0 or 5, then it also cannot be prime as it would be divisible by 5. In this case, the number ends in 5, so we can tell it must be composite and cannot be prime.
It has more than two factors.
you cant
Prime numbers have two factors. Composite numbers have more than two.
30 50 70 because they both end in 0 and 10 is a composite number
