Numbers that are not prime are called composite numbers, which means they have more than two factors.

Mammals are classified as warm-blooded vertebrates that have hair or fur, and the females give live birth to their young and provide milk.

Answer: baseball

Baseball consists of a field that includes an outfield and an infield, which includes four bases that are arranged in a diamond shape -- these bases are known as first base, second base, third base, and home plate. A single is obtained when a hitter hits a batted ball and is able to run to first base before making an out.

A double is earned when the hitter is able to make it to second base, a triple is earned when the hitter is able to make it to third, and a home run is when the hitter is able to make it all the way around the bases before being put out.

It is possible to reach or advance to a base on an error, so just because you reach first base, for example, doesn't necessarily mean you hit a single.
