To determine if 1106 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1106.
If the factors of 1106 are only 1106 and 1, then we know that 1106 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1106 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1106 is only divisible by 1 and 1106, then it is a prime number, and if 1106 is divisible by more than 1106 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1106 are as follows:
1, 2, 7, 14, 79, 158, 553, 1106
Therefore, since 1106 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1106 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 1107 prime or composite?
