5th Grade Prime and Composite Numbers
Definition Prime Numbers:
A number which has only two factors, 1 and the number itself, is called the prime number.
For example, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, etc are prime numbers.
2 is the only even prime number. All other prime numbers are odd numbers.
Definition Composite Numbers:
A number which has more than two factors is called the composite number.
For example, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, etc. are composite numbers.
1 is a unique number which is a factor of all the numbers. It is neither prime nor composite number.

Highest common factor (H.C.F) of two or more numbers is the greatest number which divides each of them exactly. Now we will learn about the method of finding highest common factor (H.C.F). Steps 1: Find all the factors of each given number. Step 2: Find common factors of the
Prime factorisation or complete factorisation of the given number is to express a given number as a product of prime factor. When a number is expressed as the product of its prime factors, it is called prime factorization. For example, 6 = 2 × 3. So 2 and 3 are prime factors
We will discuss here about multiples and factors and how they are related to each other. Factors of a number are those numbers which can divide the number exactly. For example, 1, 2, 3 and 6 are
A number is divisible by 2 if the digit at unit place is either 0 or multiple of 2. So a number is divisible by 2 if digit at its units place is 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8.
A number is divisible by 3, if the sum of its all digits is a multiple of 3 or divisibility by 3. Consider the following numbers to find whether the numbers are divisible or not divisible by 3: (i) 54 Sum of all the digits of 54 = 5 + 4 = 9, which is divisible by 3.
A number is divisible by 4 if the number is formed by its digits in ten’s place and unit’s place (i.e. the last two digits on its extreme right side) is divisible by 4. Consider the following numbers which are divisible by 4 or which are divisible by 4, using the test of
Divisible by 5 is discussed below: A number is divisible by 5 if its units place is 0 or 5. Consider the following numbers which are divisible by 5, using the test of divisibility by
Divisible by 6 is discussed below: A number is divisible by 6 if it is divisible by 2 and 3 both. Consider the following numbers which are divisible by 6, using the test of divisibility by 6: 42
Divisible by 8 is discussed below: A number is divisible by 8 if the numbers formed by the last three digits is divisible by 8. Consider the following numbers which are divisible by 8
Divisible by 7 is discussed below: We need to double the last digit of the number and then subtract it from the remaining number. If the result is divisible by 7, then the original number will also be
