What best describes the number 5? write prime, composite, neither prime nor composite, or both.

Respuesta :

prime nothing can go into that number
The number 5 is a prime because prime can be divided evenly by 1, or itself. And it must be a whole number greater than 1.

Here is an example:

5 can only be divided evenly by 1 or 5, so it is a prime number. But 6 can be divided evenly by 1, 2, 3, and 6 so it is NOT a prime number (it is a composite number).

So 5 is a prime number.
