To determine if 1104 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1104.
If the factors of 1104 are only 1104 and 1, then we know that 1104 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1104 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1104 is only divisible by 1 and 1104, then it is a prime number, and if 1104 is divisible by more than 1104 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1104 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 23, 24, 46, 48, 69, 92, 138, 184, 276, 368, 552, 1104
Therefore, since 1104 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1104 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 1105 prime or composite?
