composite numbers less than 20 which have more than 5 factors = 12 & 18 composite numbers less than 20: 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18
Factors of:
4 = 1, 2, 4
6 = 1, 2, 3, 6
8 = 1, 2, 4, 8
9 = 1, 3, 9
10 = 1, 2, 5, 10
12 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12
14 = 1, 2, 7, 14
16 = 1, 2, 4, 16
18 = 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18
thus 12 & 18 have more than 5 factors.

Composite numbers have more than 2 factors.
Composite numbers have more than two factors. So, the numbers which have two or less than two factors are not composite numbers. Numbers which have exactly two factors are prime numbers. 1 is an exceptional case because it is neither prime nor composite since it has only one factor which is 1.
All composite numbers have more than two factors.
Composite numbers
Prime numbers are numbers with only two factors. Composite numbers are numbers with more than two factors.
