To determine if 1194 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1194.
If the factors of 1194 are only 1194 and 1, then we know that 1194 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1194 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1194 is only divisible by 1 and 1194, then it is a prime number, and if 1194 is divisible by more than 1194 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1194 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 6, 199, 398, 597, 1194
Therefore, since 1194 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1194 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
