There are no general rules, just as there are no rules for primes.
However, apart from the number 2, all positive numbers ending in 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 are composite.
Apart from 5, all numbers ending in 5 are composite.
Apart from 3, all numbers whose digits add up to a multiple of 3 are composite.
However, there are many composites that are not captured by these rules.
Rectangular numbers are a subset of composite numbers. The squares of prime numbers will be composite but not rectangular.
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 :)
400 is a composite number because it is divisible by more than two numbers. Because it ends in a 0, the divisibility rules indicate it is divisible by 2, 5, and 10. (It is also divisible by other numbers.) It is not a prime number because a prime number has exactly two factors, 1 and itself.
No. Prime numbers cannot be composite and composite numbers cannot be prime!
All numbers have factors. Some factors are prime numbers, some are composite numbers. A factor that is a composite number is a composite factor.
Not all composite numbers are even, but all even numbers except 2 are composite.

Both numbers are composite numbers. Using the rules of divisibility, 2312 is composite because it is an even number that ends with 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8. 3819 is composite because the sum of its digits equal 21, a number that is divisible by 3, so the number itself is divisible by 3.
Both are composite numbers
30,32,33,34,35,36,38,39,40 are the composite numbers between 30 and 40. Composite numbers are numbers that are not prime numbers.
The number of composite numbers is infinite.
Yes, the numbers from 90 to 96 are composite numbers.
849670 is a composite number. All even numbers over 2 are composite numbers.
No. Prime numbers cannot be composite and composite numbers cannot be prime!
All numbers have factors. Some factors are prime numbers, some are composite numbers. A factor that is a composite number is a composite factor.
