17 is a prime number.
Yep.
Yes.
a prime factor
A prime number has only 2 factors - 1 and itself
The sum of 5 odd number must be odd and so cannot be 50.
It is not a prime number because 5 by it self is a prime number but for example 25 is not a prime number because you can devide it with somrthing else! ( A prime number is a number that can onley be divided by the number 1 and it self)
NO!!! It is a composite numbe 4 x 4 = 16 or 2 x 8 = 16 NB THere is only ONE even Prime Number, and that is '2' . All other prime numbers are ODD.
2 x 5 x 5 = 50 2 x 2 x 5 = 20
Since a prime number can only be divided by itself and one, theoretically, the smallest prime number is 1 itself. However - many people class the number 1 as a 'special' case - and thus claim the smallest prime number is 2.
The next prime number after 50 (which is not prime) is 53.
