Sagot :

In this case, we'll have to carry out several steps to find the solution.

Step 01:

Data:

prime number

Step 02:

prime numbers:

Prime numbers ===> numbers that have only 2 factors: 1 and themselves.

A prime number cannot be divided by any other positive integers without leaving a remainder, decimal or fraction.

13 has only two factors:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{13}{1}\text{ = 13 } \\ \\ \frac{13}{13}=1 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So it is a prime number.

4 has three factors:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{4}{1}=4 \\ \\ \frac{4}{2}=2 \\ \\ \frac{4}{4}=1 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So it is not a prime number.

That is the full solution.
