see what i did there

example

Let us take a number, say 4. It can be written as   4 × 1     1 ×4    and   2× 2 So the factors of 4 are 1   2  and 4. Therefore, we can say that 4 is a composite number.

same goes for number 6 and other composite numbers

6, can be written as 6 × 1      1 ×6      2× 3     and    3× 2. So, the factors of 6 are 1, 2, 3 and 6. Therefore, we can say that 6 is a composite number.

hope it helps:)
