Prime and Composite Numbers

A prime number is a number that has only two factors, 1 and the number itself. 

For example: 2, 3, and 5.

A composite number is a number that has more than two factors (including 1 and itself).

For example: 4, 6, and 10.


The number 1 is neither a prime number nor a composite number.
