Can composite numbers be written as the product of prime factors?
Yes. Composite numbers can be written as the product of prime factors.
Why all numbers other than square numbers have an even number of factors?
Consider a number k. Let m be the square root of k : since k is not a square number, m is not an integer and so m cannot be a factor of k.
Suppose p is a factor of k and suppose p< m.
Then k has another factor q such that k = p*q and since p < m, then q> m.
Thus, for every factor smaller than the square root, there is another factor that is larger than the square root. That is, the factors come is distinct pairs and so there is an even number of factors.
What composite number can be expressed as product of its factors?
None.
A composite number c must have a prime factor psuch that 1 < p < c.
Therefore the product of c's factors must be at least p*c which must be greater than c.
Is 4 composite or prime number?
A prime number has only 2 factors which are 1 and itself. Composite numbers are everything else except 1 and 0. 1 and 0 are neither prime, nor composite. 4 is composite.

How can you identify any number whether prime or composite?
A prime number has only 2 factors which are 1 and itself. Composite numbers are everything else except 1 and 0. 1 and 0 are neither prime, nor composite.
What is the product of the first prime number less than 100?
97 is the largest prime number less than one hundred.
Is the number 343 prime or composite?
343 is composite -- it has factors 1, 7, 49 and 343.
A prime number has only 2 factors which are 1 and itself. Composite numbers are everything else except 1 and 0. 1 and 0 are neither prime nor composite.
Are numbers 13-19-29-32 composite numbers?
32 is a composite number while 13, 19 and 29 are prime numbers
What is the comparison between prime number and composite number?
A prime number is a whole number that has two factors which are itself and one.
where as,
A composite number has factors in addition to one and itself.
If you can add the integers and they add up to a number divisible by 3, then the number is divisible by 3.
A composite material is a type of artificial material. This artificial material is usually made of two different materials usually held together by cement.

Can a composite number be written as the product of prime numbers?
Yes. For example 6 can be written as 2 x 3.
