Odd numbers cannot be divided by two, but can have other factors. For example 9 and 15 are odd numbers but not prime.
Prime numbers only have two factors: 1 and itself. For example 2 and 7 are prime numbers. Most prime numbers with the exception of 2 are odd. Even numbers are usually not prime because 2 is also a factor.

A "prime number" is a number that can only be divided by either 1 or by itself. The only even prime number is the number 2.

Odd numbers are not divisable by 2, and prime numbers are divisable by only 1 and themselves.
example:
Odd: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, and so on.
Prime: 1, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 23, and so on.
I hope that helps.

Prime numbers' divisors are limited to 1 and itself (2: 1,2; 5: 1,5; 11: 1,11; and so on....). Odd numbers are numbers that are not multiples of 2 (1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15,17,19,21, etc..). Some odd numbers are prime numbers, but not all of them are prime. For example 27 is an odd number , but not a prime number. This is the case because 27 has more than 2 divisors (1,3,9,and 27). Hope this helps.

Most odd numbers can be divided by other numbers, without any remainder.
Example: 63 = 7 * 9
Prime numbers can only be divided only by themselves and 1. Example: 67.
2 is a prime number, but all the other primes are odd numbers.

Prime numbers can only be divided by one and the number. Two is a prime number and it is not odd. Every other prime number is odd though. Odd numbers are just not divisible by two.

An odd number is a number not divisible by two. A prime number is a number divisible by only one and itself.

Odd numbers are numbers that cannot be divided by 2. When you divide it by 2, you will get remainders. For example, 3 (when you divide 3 by 2, you will get remainder 1).
Prime numbers are numbers that can ONLY divide by 1 and itself. For example, 7 (when you divide 7 by 1, you will get 7 and when you divide 7 by 7, you will get 1), 11, 13...
