The sum first Prime number is

(2 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 11 + 13 + 17 + 19 + 23 + 29 ) = 129

The sum of the first composite numbers is

(4 + 6 + 8 + 9 + 10 + 12 + 14 + 15 + 16 + 18) = 112

The difference is 129 - 112 = 17 !!!!!

How is 4567278 a composite number?

First, you have to know the difference between Prime Numbers and Composite Numbers. Prime Numbers are numbers that has only two factors: 1 and itself. Composite Numbers are numbers that have factors other than 1 and itself. Composite numbers are always even, with only one exception: number 2. Two is the ONLY EVEN PRIME NUMBER. Never will you encounter another even prime number because it will always have AT LEAST 3 factors. # ITSELF. # ONE. # TWO. Now that we know the difference between Prime and Composite, we can answer your question. 4,567,278 is an even number. It is divisible by itself, one, two and probably more numbers. Therefore, it is COMPOSITE!
