50 is composite. Composite numbers are divisible by numbers other than themselves and one. The number 50 is also divisible by 2, 5, 10, and 25, so 50 is composite.

*ANY number that ends in zero can be divided evenly by 10 (and 5 and 2, for that matter). That means no number ending in 0 can be prime.

50 is a composite number.

50 has factors other than 1 and itself, so it is not a prime number. For example, 50 is 5 x 10, so it is a composite number. All even numbers greater than 2 are composite.
