To determine if 1114 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1114.
If the factors of 1114 are only 1114 and 1, then we know that 1114 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1114 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1114 is only divisible by 1 and 1114, then it is a prime number, and if 1114 is divisible by more than 1114 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1114 are as follows:
1, 2, 557, 1114
Therefore, since 1114 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1114 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 1115 prime or composite?
