A Prime number must have exactly two factors, 1 and the number itself. 1 is not a prime because its only factor is 1.
Because 2 is a prime number and 2 added to any other prime number will give an odd result.
No it is not. A prime number will only divide (to give an integer as a result) by 1 and itself. 267 will also divide by 89 & 3 so it is not prime.
if divide the prime numbers by the compositenumber it will give you a greater number that is either a prime number or composite.
Prime numbers are numbers that can only be multiplied by 1 and itself (whole numbers only) to give the same result 49 (7x7) and 81 (9x9) are not a prime number (perfect squares actually) 111 and 97 are a prime number (find me two numbers that gives the same product without using the number 1)
The digit prime number below 10 is 2.

Obviously, the answer is a composite number. Reason:A number multiplied by another number (besides 1) will give a result of a composite number. If a number is multiplied by 0, the answer will be 0 (which is not a prime number nor composite) unless a number has been added or subtracted to give either a negative or positive number, respectively.
47 + 7
23 is already prime.

A prime number is one which cannot be evenly divided by any prime number 61 ÷ 2 = 30 +1 61 ÷ 3 = 20 +1 61 ÷ 5 = 12 +1 61 ÷ 7 = 8 + 5 As the square root of 61 lies between 7 and 8, there is no need to take the division further than this... any prime number which might have divided it would give a result lower than the number we have already tried. So, yes! 61 is a prime number.
There is no formula that will specifically give you a prime number and no non-prime number. Therefore, several large numbers are tested to see if they are primes, until a prime number is found.
