Solution

The correct option is B
composite

A prime number has 1 and itself as factors. If a number has more than 2 factors then it is called a composite number. For example: 3, 13, 29 are prime numbers and have no other factors except 1 and the number itself whereas 15, 27 are composite numbers because they have additional factors.
