There is no largest composite number. Nor is there a largest sequence of consecutive composite numbers - those sequences can become arbitrarily long.
21 and 22 are the first pair.It can be proven that, given any number n, there are sequences of n consecutive composite numbers.
90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96That's the only set of seven consecutive composite numbers less than 100.
Not all numbers between 20 and 28 are composite numbers. 23 is a prime number.
12 is a composite number - one of 14 such numbers - between 1 and 25.
There are no composite numbers between 30 and 31. 30 and 31 are consecutive numbers with no whole numbers between them.
21 and 22 are consecutive composite numbers.
Basically, composite numbers are the non-prime numbers. Take a table of prime numbers, and look for any two prime numbers, one after the other, that have a difference greater than 2. Any numbers in between are consecutive composite numbers. For example, the next prime number after 13 is 17; that makes 14, 15, and 16 three consecutive non-primes, i.e., composite numbers.
There is no largest composite number. Nor is there a largest sequence of consecutive composite numbers - those sequences can become arbitrarily long.

No numbers (consecutive or not) can lie between a single number.
They are: 90 91 92 93 94 95 and 96 which are between the prime numbers of 89 and 97
90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96That's the only set of seven consecutive composite numbers less than 100.
3 can't lie between consecutive whole numbers. It lies between 2 and 4, which are consecutive even numbers.
Not all numbers between 20 and 28 are composite numbers. 23 is a prime number.
12 is a composite number - one of 14 such numbers - between 1 and 25.
Yes, there are an infinite number of decimal points between any two consecutive whole numbers.
