1. Fill in the blanks:
(i) A number having exactly two factors is called a …..

Solution:

A number having exactly two factors is called a prime number.

(ii) A number having more than two factors is called a ………

Solution:-

A number having more than two factors is called a composite number.

(iii) 1 is neither ……… nor ………

Solution:-

1 is neither prime nor composite.

(iv) The smallest prime number is ………

Solution:-

The smallest prime number is 2.

(v) The smallest odd prime number is ………

Solution:-

The smallest odd prime number is 3.

(vi) The smallest composite number is ………

Solution:-

The smallest composite number is 4.

(vii) The smallest odd composite number is ………

Solution:-

The smallest odd composite number is 9.

(viii) All prime numbers (except 2) are ………

Solution:-

All prime numbers (except 2) are odd numbers.

3. State whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F):
(i) The sum of three odd numbers is an even number.

Solution:-

False

For example, take three odd numbers 1, 3 and 5.

Then, sum of three odd numbers = 1 + 3 + 5

= 9 is an odd number

(ii) The sum of two odd numbers and one even number is an even number.

Solution:-

True

For example, take two odd numbers 1, 3 and one even number 4.

Then, sum of two odd numbers and one even number = 1 + 3 + 4

= 4 + 4

= 8 is an even number

(iii) The product of two even numbers is always an even number.

Solution:-

True

For example, take two even numbers 2, 4

Then, product of two even numbers = 2 × 4 = 8 is an even number.

(iv) The product of three odd numbers is an odd number.

Solution:-

True

For example, take three odd numbers 1, 3 and 5

Then, product of three odd numbers = 1 × 3 × 5 = 15 is an odd number.

(v) If an even number is divided by 2, the quotient is always an odd number.

Solution:-

False

For example, take an even numbers 8

Then, divide an even number by 2 we get = 8/2

= 4 is an even number.

(vi) All prime numbers are odd.

Solution:-

False

All the prime numbers except 2 are odd.

(vii) All even numbers are composite.

Solution:-

False

(viii) Prime numbers do not have any factors.

Solution:-

False

(ix) A natural number is called a composite number if it has at least one more factor other than 1 and the number itself.

Solution:-

True

(x) Two consecutive numbers cannot be both prime.

Solution:-

False

(xi) Two prime numbers are always co-prime numbers.

Solution:-

True

4. Write first six multiples of the following natural numbers:
(i) 3
(ii) 5
(iii) 12
Solution:-

(i) 3

The first six multiples of natural number 3 are 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18

(ii) 5

The first six multiples of natural number 5 are 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30

(iii) 12

The first six multiples of natural number 12 are 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72
