One is neither prime nor composite. For a number to be prime, it can only be dividable by 2 numbers. One is only divisible by one number, 1.
The number one is not prime because it can only be divided by one number (not too) as itself and 1 are the same number
One is not considered a prime number, because a normal prime number only has two divisors, itself and one. But one only has one divisor- one and itself, which is also one. One is a special case, not prime, not composite.No, it is the multiplicative identity and neither prime or composite. There was a short period in history when some called it prime--but those years are long gone.
1 is not considered to be a prime or composite number because it has only one factor which is itself.
Answer: one Answer: two. In the past, one used to be considered a prime number, but currently most mathematicians don't count it as a prime number.
sometimes zero is considered a prime, but the number two is usually thought the only one.
A number is considered prime if it has only two factors.
prime number are two factors except 1 and itself
2 is considered a prime number.
Yes and also 0 is not considered to be composite or prime although it is an even number.
No because 1 is not considered to be a prime or a composite number and so therefore it is 3.
13 would be considered a prime number, because it can only be divided by one and itself.
Because 2 has only two factors which are itself and one One is not considered to be a prime number because it has only one factor which is itself
A prime number has only two factors which are itself and one whereas a composite number has more than two factors and 1 is not considered to be prime or composite because it has only one factor which is itself.
1 is not considered to be a prime or composite number.
It is 1 that is not considered to be a prime or a composite number because it has only one factor which is itself
Two (2) is considered to be the smallest prime number.
2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 and 29 A prime number has only two factors and they are itself and one. Number 1 is not considered to be a prime number.
