Answer 1

Answer:

Yes, since 48 has more than two factors i.e. 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48. In other words, 48 is a composite number because 48 has more than 2 factors

Answer 2

A composite number has more than two factors. The number 1 is neither prime nor composite. The prime numbers between 2 and 31 are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29 and 31 since each of these numbers has only two factors, itself and 1.
