48 = 2*2*2*2*3
By 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
There is no simple answer since, depending on the reason, there are different candidates. For example,1: it is neither prime nor composite.2: it is an even prime.10: it is the smallest composite (in the list).48: because it has ten factors.

It is composite.
It's clearly not prime; no even number is prime. It is composite.

48 is not a prime number it can be divide by 8, 2 and 4
composite because it has more than two factors.
24 is a factor of 48. But, 24 is not a prime factor because it is a composite number.
The factors are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48. 48 is composite.
A prime number has only 2 factors which are 1 and itself. Composite numbers are everything else except 1 and 0. 1 and 0 are neither prime, nor composite. 48 is composite.
It would be impossible to list them all, since numbers go on forever, but here are some of them: 2 - Prime 3 - Prime 4 - Composite 5 - Prime 6 - Composite 7 - Prime 8 - Composite 9 - Composite 10 - Composite 11 - Prime 12 - Composite 13 - Prime 14 - Composite 15 - Composite 16 - Composite 17 - Prime 18 - Composite 19 - Prime 20 - Composite 21 - Composite 22 - Composite 23 - Prime 24 - Composite 25 - Composite 26 - Composite 27 - Composite 28 - Composite 29 - Prime 30 - Composite 31 - Prime 32 - Composite 33 - Composite 34 - Composite 35 - Composite 36 - Composite 37 - Prime 38 - Composite 39 - Composite 40 - Composite 41 - Prime 42 - Composite 43 - Prime 44 - Composite 45 - Composite 46 - Composite 47 - Prime 48 - Composite 49 - Composite 50 - Composite
No because 48 has more than two factors and so therefore it is a composite number
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.
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.
A prime number is a number that is divisible only by 1 and itself; it has no other factors. A composite number is a number that is divisible by more than two numbers - more than 1 and itself. The factors of 48 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48. Therefore, it is a composite number.
