Based on the table, which number has only 2 factors? has more
than 2 factors?

Notice that 11 and 13 have two factors each. The factors of 11

are 1 and 11. The factors of 13 are 1 and 13.
Notice that 12, 14 and 15 have more than 2 factors each. The
factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12. The factors of 14 are 1, 2,
7, and 14. The factors of 15 are 1, 3, 5, and 15.
Now, let us classify the numbers according to the number of
factors they have.

Numbers with only two factors, 1 and itself, are

called Prime Numbers.
11 and 13 are prime numbers. They have only two
factors – 1 and itself.
5 and 7 are other examples of prime numbers.
What are the factors of 5? 1 and 5
What are the factors of 7? 1 and 7
Numbers with more than two factors are called Composite
Numbers.
12, 14 and 15 are composite numbers. They have more
than 2 factors.
Let’s have another example.
Let’s try to get the factors of 18.
To get its factors, we think of:
1 x 18 = 18 18 x 1 = 18
2 x 9 = 18 9 x 2 = 18
3 x 6 = 18 6 x 3 = 18
What are the factors of 18? 1,2,3 6, 9 and 18
Is 18 a prime or composite number?
Why is 18 a composite number?
Can you think of other composite numbers? Name some.
The numbers 0 and 1 are neither prime nor composite.
B. Put the flowers in their proper vase
by identifying whether the number is
prime or composite.
