composite numbers are those that have more than 2 factors. all even numbers other than 2 are composite numbers and some odd numbers are composite numbers. numbers that are prime are the numbers that are not composite numbers i hope this answers your question :)
No. All prime numbers except for the number 2 are odd. However, most odd numbers are composite numbers. All even numbers greater than 2 are composite numbers. So, prime numbers do not need to be odd, since one prime number is even. Also, composite numbers do not need to be even.Here are some composite odd numbers:9 = 3 x 333 = 3 x 1175 = 5 x 15
No, some composite numbers are odd. The smallest composite odd numbers are 9, 15, 21, 25, and 27. Not all even numbers are composite either. There's only one even number that's prime, which is 2.
The set of even numbers contains the prime number, 2. The set of composite numbers contains infinitely many odd numbers.
None. All counting numbers are even or odd.
