5. EVEN NUMBERS
A counting number which is

0,2,4,6,8,10,12……..etc.
Every unit place of an even number
will be 0,2,4,6,8.

6. ODD NUMBERS
A counting number which is not
divisible by 2 is called an odd
number.
For Example :- 1,3,5,7,9,11……..etc.
Every unit place of an odd number
will be 1,3,5,7,9.

is divisible only by “1” and itself.
 Numbers are :- 2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23,29,31,37,41,43,47,
53, 59,61,67,71,73,79,83,89,97.

8. COMPOSITE NUMBERS
 Composite numbers are non-prime natural numbers,
that can be divided evenly by numbers other than “1”
and itself.
