To determine if 1324 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1324.
If the factors of 1324 are only 1324 and 1, then we know that 1324 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1324 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1324 is only divisible by 1 and 1324, then it is a prime number, and if 1324 is divisible by more than 1324 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1324 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 331, 662, 1324
Therefore, since 1324 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1324 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 1325 prime or composite?
