Why the multiple of any number other than 1 are not prime numbers

1 answer:

6 0

Because the fact that they can be the answer of a multiplication of a set of numbers other than one, means that they cannot be prime.

What is a prime number? A prime number is a number whose only factors are 1 and itself.

So for example, if you can use 2 multiplied 7 to get 14, then that means 2&7 are factors of 14. Since 14 has factors other than one and itself, then it isn't prime.

[Right Triangles Only] Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

a is a leg
b is another leg
c is the hypotenuse

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Identify

Leg a = 24

Leg b = 7 in

Leg c = x

Step 2: Solve for x

Substitute in variables [Pythagorean Theorem]: 24² + 7² = x²
Evaluate exponents: 576 + 49 = x²
Add: 625 = x²
[Equality Property] Square root both sides: 25 = x
Rewrite/Rearrange: x = 25
