Is 58 a prime or composite number?

Composite. A prime number has exactly two factors - 1 and itself. A composite number has more than two factors. 58 is an even number (ends in 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8), so it is also divisible by 2, so it cannot be a prime number. With the exception of the number 2 all prime numbers are odd numbers so 58 cannot be a prime number, it is obviously divisible by 2, as well as by 1 and 58.


Why is 58 composite?

Because it is divisible by a number other than 1 and itself. To be a prime number 58 would have to have no other divisors other than 1 and 58, which in this case is not true. 58 is divisible by 2 and 29 also, which makes it composite.

What is the answer to this maths question write 58 as a product of its prime factors please explain it?

All composite numbers can be expressed as unique products of prime numbers. This is accomplished by dividing the original number and its factors by prime numbers until all the factors are prime. A factor tree can help you visualize this. Example: 58 58 Divide by two. 29,2 Stop. All the factors are prime. 2 x 29 = 58 That's the prime factorization of 58.
