    A prime number has only itself and 1 as factors

    A composite number can be divided evenly by a number that is not itself or 1

    Neither would be 1 and negative numbers, as 1 only has one factor (itself) and the terms prime and composite do not include negative numbers.

    9 is perfectly divisible by 3 so it is composite.
