To determine if 1083 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1083.
If the factors of 1083 are only 1083 and 1, then we know that 1083 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1083 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1083 is only divisible by 1 and 1083, then it is a prime number, and if 1083 is divisible by more than 1083 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1083 are as follows:
1, 3, 19, 57, 361, 1083
Therefore, since 1083 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1083 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 1084 prime or composite?
