32 is a composite number
2 is the only prime factor of 32
No. For example, 61 is a prime number; 16 is not a prime number.
If that's 12, 48, 16 and 32, none of them are prime.
A prime number is a number that has only 2 factors. That is, it can only divide by 1 and itself. 32 is even, and has the factors 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32. Thus it is not a prime, but is a composite number.
