Answer 2

Answer:

C. $\displaystyle 3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Prime Numbers consist of two factours -- 1 and that number. Just so you know, you can AUTOMATICALLY eliminate the first two choises because those two numbers are not composite nor prime. Now, I can predict that your next lesson will probably be about prime factorisation, in which you have to find the prime factorisation of numbers, using two methods:

• Factour Tree
• Ladder Diagram

3 3|3

3 1

9 3|9

/\ ⁻⁻

3 3 3|3

⁻⁻

1

So, the prime factorisation of 9 is $\displaystyle 3^2,$and the prime factorisation of 3 is 3.
