The definition of a prime number is one in which there are no factors other than 1 and itself. For example, 5 has no other factors other than 1 and 5 (itself).

The number 1 is not considered prime nor composite.So, even though it is a square (1²), it is not a prime number.

All square numbers have a square root that is neither 1 nor itself: 16 is the square of 4, 49 the square of 7, and so on.

Due to the fact that square numbers have factors other than 1 and itself, square numbers are not prime.

Hope this helps! :)

<span>The goal in simplifying numbers is to reduce it that can be best seen in the eye. Also in converting units, you must take note of the units given in the problem. If you don’t, you would get a lot of errors. Length is the measure of distance and can be best represented by either in SI units or English units. Example of an SI unit is meter, m, and English unit is feet, ft. You are given 3 inches and 2 feet. You can convert any of the numbers into a number that would feel comfortable to you. I will take 3 inches. Note that there are 12 inches in 1 feet. So divide 3 by 12 and you will get ¼ feet. Then divide 2 feet to ¼ feet and you will get 8.</span>
