To determine if 1113 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1113.
If the factors of 1113 are only 1113 and 1, then we know that 1113 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1113 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1113 is only divisible by 1 and 1113, then it is a prime number, and if 1113 is divisible by more than 1113 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1113 are as follows:
1, 3, 7, 21, 53, 159, 371, 1113
Therefore, since 1113 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1113 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 1114 prime or composite?
