To identify whether a number is prime or composite, look at its factors. A prime number has exactly two factors: one and itself. A composite number has more factors and can be written as the product of prime numbers. For example: Factors of 17: 1 and 17 so 17 is prime. Factors of 102: 1, 2, 3, 6, 17, 34, 51 and 102 so 102 is composite. It can be expressed as the product of prime numbers by prime factoring: 2 x 3 x 17
102
As an even number greater than 2, 102 is a composite number.
The number is not COMPOSITE. Instead, it is a prime number.
Composite (the only even number that is prime is2).
A prime number is divisible only by itself - 102 is divisible by 2 and 51 so it is not a prime.
A prime number is divisible only by itself - 102 is divisible by 2 and 51 so it is not a prime.A prime number is divisible only by 1 and itself.102 is a composite number because it is divisible by 2, 17, and 51 as well as by 1 and itself.Every even number (except 2) is composite.

It cannot be a prime number because it is even. The only prime number that is even is the number 2. 102 is a composite number, the product of the integers 2 x 3 x 17.
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. 45 and 102 are both composite.

It is not a prime number, it is a composite number.
It is prime
86 is not a prime number, so is a composite.
