The composite factors of 48 are 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48
ANSWER: The next composite number after 12 is 14.
No because 48 has more than two factors and so therefore it is a composite number
composite because it has more than two factors.
yup! since its even its divisible by 2!
48 is a composite number. It can be divided by 8 and 6. 8x6=48
The composite factors of 48 are 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48
The next composite number after 4 is 6.
ANSWER: The next composite number after 12 is 14.
48 is a composite number. This is because composite numbers are any number that has more than two factors (one and itself). Therefore, since there are many factors of 48 besides one and itself including 2, 3, and 4, that makes it a composite number.
The next highest composite number is 9. The next number that has 8 as a factor is 16
The next composite number after 20 is 21.
17 is a prime number - the next composite number after 17 is 18.
48 has factors other than 1 and itself, so it is not a prime number. It is an even number that is greater than 2, so it also has 2 as a factor. Therefore, it is a composite number. All even numbers greater than 2 are composite numbers.No number that ends in an '8' can be prime; it is at least divisible by 2. Use this kind of thinking to derive the other factors of 48.
No because 48 has more than two factors and so therefore it is a composite number
48 = 2*2*2*2*3By definition, 48 is not a prime number.48 is an even number greater than 2. It is composite.composite because it is a multiple of 2, and 24
composite because it has more than two factors.
