3.      A multiple of a number is the product of that number by any other whole number.

4.      Every number has infinite number of multiples.

5.      Every number is its smallest multiple.

7.      Every number having more than two distinct factors is called a composite number.

8.      The number 1 is neither a prime nor a composite number.

9.      The only even prime number is 2, all other prime numbers are odd numbers.

10. There are 25 prime numbers between 1 and 100.

11. All the multiples of 2 are called even numbers.
