Divisors. Primes are divisible by themselves, and one. Composite numbers also have other divisors.
Any number having more than two factors or divisors is a composite number. A prime number has exactly two divisors, 1 and the number itself, and 1 is not considered to be a prime nor a composite because it has only 1 proper factor.
No, prime numbers must have exactly two divisors which result in an integer dividend; these numbers are one (1) and the number itself. Since 260 is an even number it has two (2) as a such a divisor. Thus, it has more than two and is not prime.
A prime number is a natural number greater than 1 that has no positive divisors other than 1 and itself. 53,59 are the two prime numbers
No, the numbers 19, 21, and 23 are not composite numbers. A composite number is a positive integer greater than 1 that has more than two distinct positive divisors. In the case of these numbers, 19 and 23 are prime numbers because they are only divisible by 1 and themselves, while 21 is a composite number because it has divisors other than 1 and itself (3 and 7).

No they do not, take a big prime number and compare it to a smaller composite number. The number 6833 as only two factors (divisors), namely 1 and itself. But the number 68 which is much smaller has more factors or divisors. 68 has 2 and 4 and 17 and 1 and itself which is already more divisors than 6833.
Yes, all numbers that have 2 in the one's place are composite numbers. In fact, all even numbers except for 2 itself are composite numbers.

Divisors are whole numbers. The divisors of 100 between 1 and 10 are 1, 2, 4, 5 and 10.
Prime numbers have two factors. The sum of their proper divisors is always 1.
You need at least two numbers to find a GCF.
