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

Answer:

Natural numbers with more than two elements are known as composite numbers. In other terms, a composite number is a number that is divisible by a number other than 1 and the number itself.

Step-by-step explanation:

Numbers with more than two elements are called composite numbers. The amount of factors that a number contains can be used to classify it. A prime number is one that contains only two factors: one and the number itself. Most numbers, however, include more than two elements, and are referred to as composite numbers. We'll look at the distinction between prime and composite numbers, as well as the smallest composite number and odd composite numbers, on this page. The last one is intriguing because, unlike 2, which is the only even prime number, there exist multiple odd composite numbers.

The first few composite numbers are 4, 6, 8, 9, and 10. Let's look at numbers 4 and 6. Because 4 and 6 are built up of other numbers in the example above, they are called composite numbers.
