All prime numbers greater than two are odd, but all composite numbers are not even.
An example of a composite number that is not even is 9.

Answer:A prime number is a whole number that only has two factors which are itself and one. A composite number has factors in addition to one and itself. The numbers 0 and 1 are neither prime nor composite. All even numbers are divisible by two and so all even numbers greater than two are composite numbers.
