To determine if 1333 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1333.
If the factors of 1333 are only 1333 and 1, then we know that 1333 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1333 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1333 is only divisible by 1 and 1333, then it is a prime number, and if 1333 is divisible by more than 1333 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1333 are as follows:
1, 31, 43, 1333
Therefore, since 1333 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1333 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 1334 prime or composite?
