240 is a composite number. 240 has factors of 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 40, 60, 80 and 240.

*Note: Any number that is even is always a composite number. The only exception is 2, because its only factors are 1 and itself.

240 is an even number greater than 2 and it is divisible by 5 and 10. It is a composite number (a number with factors other than 1 and itself). All positive, whole numbers greater than two and ending in 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8 are composite.
