Answer:
A composite number is a number that can be divided evenly by more numbers than 1 and itself. It is the opposite of a prime number. The number 24 can be evenly divided by 1 2 3 4 6 8 12 and 24, with no remainder. Since 24 cannot be divided by just 1 and 24, it is a composite number.

24 is a composite number as other numbers besides 1 and 24 go into it. For example 2,3, 4, 6, 8 and 12. A prime number, for example 17 has no other numbers that go into it exactly
