Answer:

1 is neither prime nor a composite number because it only has 1 divisor, 1 and 1, and it doesn't have more than 2 integral divisors, like stated, it only has 1. So it falls in neither category.

Answer:

because

Step-by-step explanation:

A prime number has exactly two integral divisors: 1 and itself. Because it contains only one divisor, the number 1 is not a prime. A whole number with more than two integral divisors is called a composite number. So, with the exception of 0 and 1, all whole integers are either prime or composite.

It would be 3.5 as you start with 56 then take away 16 =40 then another witch is 24 the another 16 Is 8 so you have taken e16 away so far that's 3 pound and because you can take a full 16 off that makes it a half so final awnser is 3.5 56-16=40-16=24-16=8=3 pounds and a half hope I have helped you in any way
