So, 36 satisfies the given conditions. To find the product of the first five composite numbers let us first list out the composite numbers. Here are few activities for you to practice. In math, numbers are the basic building blocks. Composite numbers are the types of numbers that have more than two factors. For example, number 6 is a composite number it has 1, 2, 3, and 6 as its factors. To find whether a given number is composite, we just find the number of factors it has.
If it has more than 2 factors, then the number is composite. For example, 4 has three factors, 1, 2, and 4. So, it is a composite number.
No, 2 is not a composite number, it is the only even prime number. A composite number has more than two factors, other than 1 and the number itself. Here, 2 has only two factors, 1 and 2 itself. Therefore, 2 is a prime number. A number that is divisible by a number other than 1 and the number itself, is called a composite number. For example, 4, 6 are composite numbers.
Whereas, a number that is divisible only by 1 and itself is called a prime number, like, 2, 3, and 5. All the odd numbers excluding 1 which are not prime are odd composite numbers. For example, 9 and 15 are the odd composite numbers.
Here, 4 satisfies this condition, and there is no other number smaller than 4 which is composite. Therefore, 4 is the smallest composite number. A prime number has only two factors, 1 and the number itself, whereas, a composite number has more than two factors.
For example, 5 has only two factors, 1 and 5, so it is a prime number. Whereas 6 has four factors, 1, 2, 3, and 6, so it is a composite number. Learn Practice Download. Composite Numbers Composite numbers are numbers with more than two factors. What are Composite Numbers? Properties of Composite Numbers 3. How to Find Composite Numbers? Types of Composite Numbers 5.
Any number which is a multiple of 6 is also a multiple of 2 and 3 , so we can rule these out too. First test for divisibility by 2. Next, test for divisibility by 3. Since 11 is not a multiple of 3 , neither is Remember, this trick only works to test divisibility by 3 and 9. Since doesn't end in a 0 or a 5 , it's not divisible by 5.
Next, test for divisibility by 7. Since 10 is not a multiple of 3 , neither is You'll find that 7 doesn't go in evenly. The next prime is But 11 doesn't go in evenly, either.
