How do composite numbers compare with odd and even numbers?
composite numbers are those that have more than 2 factors. all even numbers other than 2 are composite numbers and some odd numbers are composite numbers. numbers that are prime are the numbers that are not composite numbers i hope this answers your question :)
Do prime numbers have to be odd and composite numbers have to be even?
No. All prime numbers except for the number 2 are odd. However, most odd numbers are composite numbers. All even numbers greater than 2 are composite numbers. So, prime numbers do not need to be odd, since one prime number is even. Also, composite numbers do not need to be even.Here are some composite odd numbers:9 = 3 x 333 = 3 x 1175 = 5 x 15
Are almost all of the odd numbers composite?
Yes.
Are all composite numbers also even numbers?
No, some composite numbers are odd. The smallest composite odd numbers are 9, 15, 21, 25, and 27. Not all even numbers are composite either. There's only one even number that's prime, which is 2.
Can odd numbers be composite?
If an odd number has more than two factors then it is a composite number but if it has only two factors then it is a prime number. Although all prime numbers are odd except for 2 many more odd numbers are composite numbers having more than two factors as for example 21 is an odd number whose factors are 1, 3, 7 and 21.
