Work back from 999:
999 is odd ... no.
998 is even and divisible by 2, so it is composite. (All even numbers are composite!)
Further Information:-
All even numbers are composite except for 2 which is a Prime number.
Every even number except 2 is a composite number. 1814 is also an even number, therefore it is a composite number.
Is 230 a prime number or composite?230 is a composite number. It's composite because it is even and all even numbers (except 2) are composite.
Zero is an even number but it is not composite (nor prime).
All even numbers, except 2, are composite.
Any even number except 2 is composite.
196, 198, 202, 204
To be an even number then the final digit = 2. The largest single prime digit is 7 (as both 8 and 9 are composite). The greatest even number fulfilling the conditions is 77777772.
Every even number except 2 is a composite number. 1814 is also an even number, therefore it is a composite number.
4*9 = 36 so 360 is one possible answer.
well, it's not 999 because that's odd ... can't see why it wouldn't be 998, which is the greatest even three-digit number, and since all even numbers besides 2 are composite, it must also be the greatest three-digit composite even number
YES. 750 is a composite number because it is an even number. The only even number that is not a composite number is 2.
As an even number greater than 2, 122 is a composite number.
Is 230 a prime number or composite?230 is a composite number. It's composite because it is even and all even numbers (except 2) are composite.
Zero is an even number but it is not composite (nor prime).
All even numbers, except 2, are composite.
As an even number greater than 2, 1212 is a composite number.
678 is an even number. The number 2 is the only even prime. All other even numbers are composite.
