4QuestionComposite Numbers and Their PropertiesAssessment Practice
4 marks~6 minCriterion C
A school plans a rectangular garden with an area of 36 m2. A student claims that because 36 is composite, both side lengths must also be composite numbers, giving exactly three possible pairs: 4×9, 6×6, and 9×4.
a
List all factor pairs of 36. [1]
b
Identify which factors of 36 are composite numbers. Explain why 1, 2, and 3 are not composite. [2]
