To identify the number classified as composite, we need to understand what a composite number is. A composite number is a positive integer greater than 1 that has more than two factors. Factors are the numbers that can be multiplied together to get the given number.
To find the composite number among the options provided, we can check each number to see if it has factors other than 1 and itself.
Let's examine the options:
- 37: To determine if 37 is composite, we need to check if it has factors other than 1 and 37. We find that 37 is only divisible by 1 and 37 itself. Therefore, 37 is not composite.
- 27: To determine if 27 is composite, we need to check if it has factors other than 1 and 27. We find that 27 is divisible by 1, 3, 9, and 27. Therefore, 27 is composite.
- 67: To determine if 67 is composite, we need to check if it has factors other than 1 and 67. We find that 67 is only divisible by 1 and 67 itself. Therefore, 67 is not composite.
- 47: To determine if 47 is composite, we need to check if it has factors other than 1 and 47. We find that 47 is only divisible by 1 and 47 itself. Therefore, 47 is not composite.
Among the options provided, the number classified as composite is 27.
