Algebra.Com's Answer #4907 by prabhjyot(165)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! A composite number is a number that has more than two factors. For example, 6 is a composite number because it has four factors (1, 2, 3, 6). 5 is not a composite number because it has only 2 factors, 1 and 5.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Add up the digits of your number, if the sum is divisible by 3, your number is composite \n" ); document.write( "51 = 5+1=6 \n" ); document.write( "6 is divisible by 3 \n" ); document.write( "so 51 is composite number\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "81 = 8+1=9 \n" ); document.write( "9 is divisible by 3 \n" ); document.write( " so 81 is composite number\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "111= 1+1+1 =3 \n" ); document.write( "3 is divisible by 3 \n" ); document.write( "so 111 is composite number \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
