Answer:

1)The factors of a number are the numbers that divide into it exactly.

2)A twin prime is a prime number that is either 2 less or 2 more than another prime number.

3)A composite number is a positive integer that can be formed by multiplying two smaller positive integers. Equivalently, it is a positive integer that has at least one divisor other than 1 and itself.

Step-by-step explanation:

1)The number 12 has six factors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 12. If 12 is divided by any of the six factors then the answer will be a whole number.

2)for example, either member of the twin prime pair (41, 43). In other words, a twin prime is a prime that has a prime gap of two.

3)For example, the integer 14 is a composite number because it is the product of the two smaller integers 2 × 7.

Answer:

1. Multiplying two whole numbers gives a product. The numbers that we multiply are the factors of the product.

2. Two prime numbers are called twin primes if there is present only one composite number between them. Or we can also say two prime numbers whose difference is two are called twin primes. For example, (3,5) are twin primes, since the difference between the two numbers 5 – 3 = 2.

3. A composite number is a positive integer that can be formed by multiplying two smaller positive integers. Equivalently, it is a positive integer that has at least one divisor other than 1 and itself.
