To determine if 1411 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1411.
If the factors of 1411 are only 1411 and 1, then we know that 1411 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1411 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1411 is only divisible by 1 and 1411, then it is a prime number, and if 1411 is divisible by more than 1411 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1411 are as follows:
1, 17, 83, 1411
Therefore, since 1411 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1411 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 1412 prime or composite?
OK. Now you know that 1411 is a composite number. Use our logic above and see if
you can figure out if the next number on our list is prime or composite before you check your answer.
