Answer:

200 is not a Prime number. It is a composite number.

Definition:

A prime number has exactly two factors: 1 (also known as unity) and itself. A composite number has more than two factors; in other words, it has at least one factor besides 1 and itself.

Explanation:

200 has factors other than 1 and itself, so it is not a prime number. Any number ending in 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8 is evenly divisible by 2, so it also has 2 as a factor. Since 200 is divisible by 2, it is composite number.
