57 divided by 3 is 19. (Any number in which all the digits add up to equal a number divisible by 3 is divisible by 3. 5+7=12 which is divisible by 3.) And since 57 is divisible by more numbers than just 1 and itself it is a composite number.

57 is a composite number. A Prime number has only 2 factors which are 1 and itself. Composite numbers are everything else except 1, 2, and 0. 1, 2, and 0 have a different name.
