Answer:
- All the factors of 19 are 1 and 19 .
- 19 is a Prime number .
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
- If we try to factorize the number 19 we get 1 and 19 itself.
- Since 1 divides all the real numbers and 19 divides itself.
So 19 = 1 x 19
Step 2 :
Prime Numbers : If given any real numbers does not have any factor other than 1 or itself then that number is called prime number,
Example : 2 , 3, 5 ,7 ,11 etc.
Composite Numbers : If given any real number have at least one factor other then 1 and itself then that real number is called composite number.
Example : 6 , 10 ,15
Here in the question given real number is 19 which does not has any factor other then 1 and itself 19 so we can say that 19 is a prime number.
