That should be quite obvious from the definition of a) square, and b) Prime number.A square is the product of a number by itself. For example, 3 x 3. Therefore, the square of 3 has the number 3 as a factor.
A prime number does NOT can NOT be split up into smaller factors.

∙ 6y agoActually, 2 is the square of sqrt(2). Therefore, 2 is a prime as well as a square even though it is not a perfect square. So your assertion is nonsense!
If you limit yourself to perfect squares, then these comprise the numbers {n2 : n is an integer}.
1, n and n2 will be different factors of n2 for any n greater than 1. And for n = 0 and 1, n2 = 0 or 1, which are outside the domain of prime numbers.
