TASK
It is important that students learn what number concepts are including prime numbers and composite numbers. Prime numbers are natural numbers that have only two factors one and itself while composite numbers are natural numbers that has more than two factors. Moreover, learning what prime numbers are is important because, any natural number can be broken down into products of primes with the exception of the number one. Additionally, primes numbers are good for quickly transforming a situation with numerous possible outcomes into an equivalent situation with only a handful of possible outcomes. On the other hand, it is important that children learn what composite numbers are because it can be express as a product of a prime factor. It is also important because you can break apart composite numbers into prime factors. Prime numbers are the basic building blocks for all numbers. Composite numbers are made up of prime numbers multiplied together and that is why they are called composite numbers, meaning something made by combining things. Telling the difference between prime and composite numbers and expressing composite numbers as prime factors is known to be one of the most important and useful in arithmetic.
In this task, you will discover the prime numbers and will probably be surprised due to the length of the largest prime number which has been found so far. Then you will develop your understanding about the definition and properties of prime numbers. You will observe the prime numbers between 1 to100 by using the Eratosthones sieve. You will realize the importance of prime numbers in our daily life and you will explore where prime numbers are used in real life.
