From the image, this activity requires sorting numbers into three categories: Prime, Composite, or Neither.

Here’s how the numbers should be sorted:

• Prime: 11, 13
  Explanation: A prime number has exactly two distinct divisors: 1 and itself. Both 11 and 13 meet this criterion.

• Composite: 10, 12
  Explanation: A composite number has more than two divisors. For example:

  • 10 has divisors 1, 2, 5, 10.
  • 12 has divisors 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12.

• Neither: None in this example.
  Explanation: Numbers like 0 and 1 are neither prime nor composite.

If you have any further questions or need clarifications, let me know!

Here are five related questions:

1. Why is the number 1 classified as neither prime nor composite?
2. How can you quickly determine if a number is composite?
3. Can negative numbers be prime or composite?
4. Are there any patterns in prime numbers?
5. Why is the number 2 considered a unique prime number?

Tip: To identify if a number is prime, test divisibility only up to its square root!
