how it is true. explain please..

OpenStudy (mertsj):

A number is composite if it has some other factor besides 1 and itself. So since 81 = 9 times 9, it has a factor of 9 which is different from 1 and 81. Therefore it is composite.

81 has factors other than 1 and itself, so it is not a prime number
