What is greater than 1 and is a whole number that have only one and itself as factors called?
They are prime numbers
what is it when you factor a whole number as a product of a prime numbers is called?
the prime factorization
What are the numbers are not prime?
Integers greater than 1, that are not prime numbers, are called composite numbers, because they are "made up of" more than one prime factor.
Are whole numbers and prime numbers the same?
No. Prime numbers are a subset of whole numbers.
Can every whole number greater than one be written as the sum of two prime numbers?
No.
What is greater than 1 and is a whole number that have only one and itself as factors called?
They are prime numbers
What is the term for whole numbers greater than one with 2 factors?
prime numbers
What do you call only whole numbers greater than 1 that is not a prime number?
Composite numbers
Where are prime and composite numbers?
They are in the subset of integers which are greater than 1.
What are the not prime numbers called greater than one?
Integers greater than one that are not prime are composite.
What is the whole number greater than 1 with only two factors 1 and itself?
Two.A number with only two factors, one and itself, is called a prime number. The only even whole prime number is two. Your question implies that there is only one whole number greater than one which is prime, however, since odd numbers are whole numbers, and odd numbers (but not even) are prime, there are infinite prime numbers (since no one has checked each number to infinity to see if it's prime, and, obviously, never will, most assume that the list of prime whole numbers is not finite). Examples are 3, 5, and 13. 9 is an example of an odd number which is not prime.
Can all whole numbers be written as prime numbers times together?
Yes, this is called their prime factorization.

the prime factorization

No. Prime numbers are a subset of whole numbers.
What Is a whole number greater than 1 whose only whole numbers factors are 1 and itself?
prime number
Is Every whole number greater then 1 can be written as the sum of two prime numbers?
true
