72 is a composite number. 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.
Ok, so "72" is a composite number, because it has factory. See, the factors of "72" are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, and then of course itself: 72. A prime number's factors are only 1 and itself, so for example 7. A factor is any whole number that, when multiplied by any one other whole number, is that number that the original number was and is a factor of. Hope this helps!
6 is not a prime number but it is a factor of 72
By multiplying some of the prime numbers together.
72 is a Composite Number
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. 72 is composite.
GCF of a prime number and a composite number is 1 if the composite number is a multiple of the prime number. 37 is a prime number and 72 is not a multiple of 37 because it is not divisible by 37. Therefore, GCF of 72 & 37 is 1.
3 is a prime factor of 72 and is contained in the prime factorization.
33 is not a factor of 72.
