Detailed Solution

The given number is 26.
Prime numbers have only two factors that can be the number 1 and the number itself.
Write the factors of the number 26.
26 = 1 × 26
26 = 13 × 2
26 = 2 × 13
26 = 26 × 1
The number 26 has four factors and hence it is not a prime number and it is a composite number.
Therefore, the given statement is false and option 2 is correct.
