Look up a list of prime numbers (a Google search for "prime numbers" or "list of prime numbers" should do); every number (greater than 1) that is NOT a prime number is composite.
The list of composite numbers between 21 and 50 includes 21, 22, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 30, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 38, 39, 40, 42, 44, 45, 46, 48, 49, 50. I don't know if you're including 21 and 50 or not. Add them up however you like.

The composite numbers up to 20 are 4,6,8,9,12,14,15,16,18 and 20.
what is all the composite numbers from one to five hundred
4,6,8,9,10,12,14,15,16,18,20,21,22,24,25,26,27,28,30,32,33,34,35,36,38,39,40,42,44,45,46,48, and 49
Please note that there are infinitely many prime numbers. An Internet search for "list of prime numbers" will quickly give you a list of prime numbers up to a certain point, for example here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_prime_numbers Any integer greater than 1 that is not in the list of prime numbers is a composite number. (1 is considered neither a prime number, nor a composite number.)
There are infinitely many composite numbers so a list is impossible. Furthermore, there is no systematic pattern to composite numbers so that it is not possible to give a functional definition either. There are, however, some lists of prime numbers and you can remove these from integers greater than 1 to arrive at partial lists of composite numbers. For composites up to 1 million, see the related link.
I suggest you look up a table of prime numbers. Any integer treater than one that is not in the table of prime numbers is a composite number.
No two (or more) composite numbers can multiply to 30.
Add them up. 40, 42, 44, 45, 46, 48, 49, 50
They are two composite numbers and they add up to 56 which is also a composite number
All composite numbers have more than 2 factors but prime numbers have only 2 factors
There are 15 prime numbers up to 50.
24 is composite because it can factored or split up as 24 = 3 * 8 for example. Prime numbers, such as 23, can not be split into factors.
You could try dividing by composite numbers but the number that you are testing is divisible by a composite number, then it will be divisible by a prime factor of that composite number and that prime factor will be smaller. It is always easier to work with smaller numbers.
An odd number of odd numbers can not add up to an even number. There fore any 9 (odd) odd numbers can not add up to 50 (even).
