a positive integer evenly divisible only by itself and one.
One is the only integer with one factor.
A prime number is a number with two positive integer factors, while a composite number has more than two positive integer factors. Since the number 0 has no positive integer factors, and the number 1 has just one positive integer factor (itself), neither of these are prime.
A positive integer with only two factors: one and the number itself.
A positive integer with only two factors: one and the number itself.
Yes it is. One is a factor of every positive integer.
Because 1 is the only positive integer that divides evenly into 1 with no remainder.
The definition of a prime is an integer that has two positive factors, one and itself. These are two distinct factors. One only has one positive factor. Thus it's not a prime.

The number zero is not the smallest positive integer. The number one is the smallest positive integer.
it always has at least 2 factorsI need to disagree on this one, since the number 1 only has one factor.Can you guess, which factor it does have :-)
