7. copyright©amberpasillas2010 Prime Numbers- A Prime number is a whole number with only 2 factors, one and itself. Composite Numbers- A Composite number is a number that has more than two factors. Example: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17… Example: 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15…

8. copyright©amberpasillas2010 Composite Number - Composite numbers can be written as the product of prime numbers. This is called: Prime Factorization - Prime Factorization is the unique set of prime numbers whose product equals a given number.
