Answer:

a composite one

Step-by-step explanation:

Why?

It is easy-peasy.

First, it is impossible to have a prime number. Because primes are only divisible by 1 and themselves.

For example, 3 is a prime. 7 is a prime. Multiply them and get 21.

I hope it helped:)

Step-by-step explanation:

No, the product of two (or more) prime numbers cannot result in another prime number. By definition, a prime number is a number that is divisible by 1 or itself - the act of multiplying two or more primes together will always yield a number divisible by 1, itself and the prime numbers multiplied together to achieve it.

Answer:

Part 1

The number of baseball players that are to split the profits = 9 baseball payers

The amount of money each player earned = $326

Let <em>x </em>represent the total amount of money raised, and given that each baseball player received equal amount of the profits we have the following division equation;

$The \ division \ equation \ is , \dfrac{x}{9} = \$ \, 326$

Part 2

Solving for the variable, gives;

x = 9 × $ 326 = $2,934

The amount of profits from the fundraiser, x = $2,934

Part 3

The amount, <em>A</em>, each of the 9 players will earn from the profit of $2,934 raised in the fund raiser is given as follows;

A = $2,934/9 = $326

∴ The amount each of the 9 players will earn, A = $326, therefore the answer corresponds to the value in the question and is therefore, correct
