Can a number not be prime or composite?
Now.... That depends on whether it is a number orr not!? :)
How do you figure out a composite number?
A number can be factored to determine whether it is prime or composite. A prime number has exactly 2 factors, 1 and the number itself. A composite number has more than two factors.
How do you tell whether a number is prime or composite?
Prime numbers have only two factors. Composite numbers have more than two.
Can you tell a prime or composite number by seeing if its odd or even?
You cannot. If a number is even - other than 2 - then it is a composite number. However, if it is odd, it is not easily possible to tell whether it is prime or composite.
How can you identify any number whether prime or composite?
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.
