Answer 1

Hey dear here is your answer!!!!

We know that prime no. are those which has 1 and no. itself as a factor....

While we also know that composite no . has more than two factors ....

But if we see factors if 1 then , it has only one i.e 1 as a factor .....

Hence it is neither prime nor composite ...

So.. it is a Natural and whole no..
and also a rational no.

Answer 2

A natural number (i.e. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, etc.) is called a prime number (or a prime) if it has exactly two positive factors, 1 and the number itself. Natural numbers that have more than two positive factors are called composite. ... Hence 1 is neither prime nor composite.

Hope this was helpful for you dear friend....
