What are the factors of 23? Is 23 prime or composite?
##23## has only 2 factors - it is prime.
A prime number can be defined as:
"A natural number which has only 2 factors - itself and 1".
23 has only 2 factors:##" "23 = 1 xx23##
There are no other natural numbers which are factors. ##23## is therefore a prime number.
If it had 3 or more factors it would be composite.
1 is the only number which has 1 factor - it is neither prime nor composite.
