Prime numbers are numbers that have only 2 factors, 1 and it's self. Composite numbers are the opposite, they have 3 or more factors.
A number will always have 1 and itself as factors. And thus the only numbers with 2 factors will be prime numbers. The only prime numbers below 20 are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17 and 19, and thus these are the only numbers below 20 that have 2 factors.
42, 48 are the two numbers bigger than 40 that have 2 and 3 as their only prime factors.
The factors of 72 that are prime numbers are 2, 3, and 5. Prime numbers are numbers greater than 1 that can only be divided by 1 and themselves without leaving a remainder. In the case of 72, it can be broken down into the prime factors 2^3 * 3^2, where 2 and 3 are the prime factors.
A number has exactly three factors if and only if it is the square of a prime number.
they are called numbers with 3 factors
The answer depends on what the numbers have more of when 3 factors!
2 and 3 are the prime factors of 36. Of the factors of 36, 2 and 3 are the only prime numbers.
Of the numbers from 1 to 30, only 30 has all three of those numbers as factors.
1,2,3,4,5,7,9,11,13,15,16,17,19,22,23,26,27,28,29,31,32,33,34,37,39,41,43,44,47,49
Out of the list of factors of 36, 2 and 3 are the only prime numbers.
3, 5 and 7 are prime numbers. Their only factors are one and themselves.
All composite numbers have more than two factors whereas prime numbers have only two factors
Prime numbers are numbers that have only 2 factors, 1 and it's self. Composite numbers are the opposite, they have 3 or more factors.
No, prime numbers have only two factors: 1 and itself. Composite numbers have at least 3 factors.
A number will always have 1 and itself as factors. And thus the only numbers with 2 factors will be prime numbers. The only prime numbers below 20 are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17 and 19, and thus these are the only numbers below 20 that have 2 factors.
42, 48 are the two numbers bigger than 40 that have 2 and 3 as their only prime factors.
