Question

6. List the factors, of 30.
1,30,5,6
Is this number prime or composite?

Answer 1

It would be a composite number

Explanation:

well, prime numbers can only be divided by themselves and 1. Ex: 3 is prime because it can only be divided by itself and 1.

composite numbers have to have more factors than 1 and itself. Ex: 20 is composite because it can be divided by 1 and 20, 10 and 2, 5 and 4.

So 30 would be composite because it can be divided by 1 and 30, 5 and 6, 3 and 10.

Answer 2

The number 30 is composite

Explanation:

It is a composite because multiple numbers can go into 30 like 6 and 5 or 3 and 10. A prime number is like 3 because only 3 and 1 can go into it. 2 and 5 and 7 is also a prime number.
