However by looking at a number it is not easy to figure out whether a number is prime or composite.
Every even number excpet 2 is a composite number so, any number having last digit as 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8 is a composite number. This is one of the ways to figure out.
However for the odd numbers it becomes diificult to figure out.
For a quicker analysis there are divisiblity rules. These are shorthand ways to find whether a number is divisble by another without performing actual division.

A number can be factored to determine whether it is prime or composite. A prime number has exactly 2 factors, 1 and the number itself. A composite number has more than two factors.
Now.... That depends on whether it is a number orr not!? :)
Here are some figures that have a number of sides that is a composite number:Two-dimensional figures includesquarehexagonoctagonnonagonThree-dimensional figures includetetrahedroncubeoctahedronicosahedron
You cannot. If a number is even - other than 2 - then it is a composite number. However, if it is odd, it is not easily possible to tell whether it is prime or composite.
If a number is divisible by anything other than itself and 1, it's composite.

To prove whether a number is composite, factor it. A number having any factor besides 1 and itself is composite.
20 is a composite number

It is a composite number, not a prime number.

It is a geometric figure made from 2 or more other geometric figures, Similar to a composite number is one made of 2 or more primes. Make a "house" with a square and a triangle on top. This is a composite figure.

35 is a composite number because it has more than two factors
If a number is divisible by anything other than itself and 1, it's composite.
