Question

Is 152 prime, composite or neither?

Answer 1

no because it is an even number therefore it can be divided by 2. It can also be divided by 76.
Since it ends with a '2', it's an even number, and '2' is one of its factors.
That immediately tells us that it's not prime, so we know that it's composite,
and we don't have to investigate any further.

'Neither' is not an option. Every whole number except '1' is either prime or composite.
