To determine if 1192 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1192.
If the factors of 1192 are only 1192 and 1, then we know that 1192 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1192 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1192 is only divisible by 1 and 1192, then it is a prime number, and if 1192 is divisible by more than 1192 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1192 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 8, 149, 298, 596, 1192
Therefore, since 1192 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1192 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
