Answer 1

Answer

TRUE

Every composite number can be expressed as a product of primes.

It is a true statement. All the composite numbers can be expressed as all of its prime factors.

The number 1 is neither composite nor prime.

Composite number can be written as a product of prime numbers, for this we have to follow prime factorization method.

For example, 45= 3 x 3 x 5

30 = 2 x 3 x 5

50 = 2 x 5 x 5

36 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 3

32 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2

Answer 2

The given statement is true.

Every composite number can be expressed as a product of primes.

For example,

12 = 2 × 2 × 3

100= 2×2×5×5

35 = 5×7
