This is just idle curiosity but since there are people on this list - most
of them - smarter than me, someone probably knows the answer.

If a and b are prime numbers, and their product a X b is c, then is c
divisible by *only* a and b? Guaranteed?  My feeling is that it is but I
lack the knowledge of what to search for to find the definitive answer.

BTW, this does *not* involve, for me, any sort of cryptography. In other
words, I'm not trying to re-invent any crypto ciphers.  Thanks!
