Answers
prime number is a number which are having only 2 divisors...and if there are more then then then it will be composite numbers...
THE NUMBERS WHICH ARE NOT COMPOSITE WILL BE PRIME.....
hlo frnd here is ur answer
A prime number can be divided, without a remainder, only by itself and by 1. For example, 17 can be divided only by 17 and by 1.
Some facts:
The only even prime number is 2. All other even numbers can be divided by 2.
If the sum of a number's digits is a multiple of 3, that number can be divided by 3.
No prime number greater than 5 ends in a 5. Any number greater than 5 that ends in a 5 can be divided by 5.
Zero and 1 are not considered prime numbers.
Except for 0 and 1, a number is either a prime number or a composite number. A composite number is defined as any number, greater than 1, that is not prime.
To prove whether a number is a prime number, first try dividing it by 2, and see if you get a whole number. If you do, it can't be a prime number. If you don't get a whole number, next try dividing it by prime numbers: 3, 5, 7, 11 (9 is divisible by 3) and so on, always dividing by a prime number
