A composite number can be expressed as the product of two or more prime numbers. For example, 30 (composite) is 2 x 3 x 5 [2, 3 and 5 are prime] A Prime number cannot be expressed as the product of other numbers. By convention the numbers zero and 1 are neither prime nor composite.
Rectangular numbers are a subset of composite numbers. The squares of prime numbers will be composite but not rectangular.
Some factors are prime numbers, some are composite.
Numbers....hehe

No. Prime numbers cannot be composite and composite numbers cannot be prime!

The relationship between prime numbers and composite numbers is that they are antonyms or opposites of each other. A natural number, is either prime or composite, but it can not be both. Prime numbers have only two factors, one and itself. Composite numbers are whole numbers that are not prime numbers, which means that they have factors other than one and itself.
Prime numbers have no divisibles.
30,32,33,34,35,36,38,39,40 are the composite numbers between 30 and 40. Composite numbers are numbers that are not prime numbers.
Both belong to set of whole numbers. There are infinite prime and composite numbers.
Prime numbers are those that are not composite. The only prime numbers in this range are 3, 5, and 7.

The difference between prime and composite numbers is simple. Prime numbers have only two factors, 1 and itself. Composite numbers are divisible by more than two numbers
