Is one prime or composite?

One is a prime number because it can only be gotten in multiplication equation by using 1x1 to get 1! If it was 12 where multiple equations could get it like 3x4 then it would be composite!

Hope this helps, if not, comment below please!!!

It's neither prime or composite.

1 only has a single factor which is 1, so you can't really say.
