Hello There! GraceRosalia is here to help you!

147 is composite.

Its factors are: 1, 3, 7, 21, 49, 147.

A number that has more than 2 factors (3 or more) is composite.

Hope this helps! :)

147 is a composite number because it is divisible by 1, 3, 7, 21, 49, and 147. A prime njmber is a number that has only two factors, 1 and itself. Any number that is not a prime number, is a composite number.
