Hi guys!

Welcome to your math class.

In this section, we're going to learn about

 " Prime and composite numbers ".


General concepts

 



Prime numbers                          2 divisors, the same number and the unit.

Composite numbers                        3 or more divisors.

Natural numbers                            all the numbers; except the number 0.




let’s do 

the next examples!











Prime numbers can be…

      23, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 17, 19, 21…


ATTENTION!

We don’t include the number 1

because it divides itself just in the multiplication table

number 1.


The way of to identify the prime numbers is by using the multiplication tables.


For example:

We can find the number 2 in the table 1 and 2.

                                           

1 x 2 = 2                         2 x 1 = 2

We can find the number 9 in the table 1 and 9.

                             

1 x 9 = 9         9 x 1 = 9


Composite numbers can be…

    4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18, 20…


The way of to identify the composite numbers is by using the multiplication tables.

 

For example:

We can find the number 6 in the table 1, 2, 3, and 6


           

1 x 6 = 6           3 x 2 = 6


  

6 x 1 = 6             2 x 3 = 6

 

We can find the number 15 in the table 1, 3, 5 and 15.


                                               

1 x 15 = 15            3 x 5 = 15


                 5 x 3 = 15                                       Yes,

                                               it’s very easy!


Let's watch the following video


Let's practice!

Activity n°1

Classify the next numbers as prime or composite numbers.


                       Activity n°2
Relate the divisors of the next numbers.
