How do you find prime and composite numbers?
By factoring them. Prime numbers have only two factors. Composite numbers have three or more.
If a composite number has the first five prime numbers as factors what is the smallest number it could be?
Just multiply the first five prime numbers! 2x3x5x7x11 = 6x35x11 = 210x11 = 2310. Any multiple of this number "has the first five prime numbers as factors", but 2310 is the smallest such number.
What are the 12 first composite numbers?
The first 12 composite numbers are.... 4,6,8,9,10,12,14,15,16,18,20,21,A composite number is basically any number that can go into that number, so like 15 is a composite number because 15x1=15,and then 5x3=15. That's two or more pair of numbers.
How do you notice that it is factors or prime or composite numbers?
First of all, every number is a factor - of its multiples.There is no general way to distinguish between prime and composite numbers. At one level, though, there are some simple ways. If the number is not 2, but ends in 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8 then it is a composite, If the number is not 5 but ends in 0 or 5 it is composite. If the number is not 3 but the sum of all the digits of a number is 3 or divisible by 3, then it is composite. There are moderately complicated divisibility rules for 7 and 11. But this method does not identify all composite numbers and there is no guaranteed method.
Is a composite number times a composite number always composite?
Yes. To be composite, the first number has at least 2 prime factors, the second number also has at least prime factors; the product of the two will have at least 4 prime factors, so it must be a composite number.
What is the 4th composite number?
Composite numbers are numbers with more than 2 factors. The first composite number is 4. The next composite numbers are 6, 8, and 9. Thus, the fourth composite number is 9.
How do you find prime and composite numbers?
By factoring them. Prime numbers have only two factors. Composite numbers have three or more.
What lowest composite number has the first five prime numbers as factors?
It is 2310.
What is the smallest number which has among it's factors the first five prime numbers and the first four composite numbers?
27720
Who discover the prime and composite numbers?
You do! You first list all the factors of a number. A prime number has only 2 factors which are 1 and itself. Composite numbers are everything else except 1 and 0. 1 and 0 are neither prime, nor composite.
What does first factor mean when rounding?
It means to express a number as the product of its factors. Factors are either composite numbers or prime numbers (except that 0 and 1 are neither prime nor composite).

What are the first composite numbers?
The first composite number is 4.

What is the smallest composite number that has three different prime factors?
Just multiply the first three prime numbers together.
Is a composite number times a composite number always composite?
Yes. To be composite, the first number has at least 2 prime factors, the second number also has at least prime factors; the product of the two will have at least 4 prime factors, so it must be a composite number.
