Abstract
Observations are made regarding the pattern of the composite numbers that have a particular prime factor for their lowest prime factor. It is subsequently proven that this pattern repeats over intervals equal to the primorial of that lowest prime factor such that the number and distribution of such composites is constant. The value of that constant composite to primorial ratio is proven to be related to the previous prime numbers and its constant composite to primorial ratio.
