To determine if 1922 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1922.
If the factors of 1922 are only 1922 and 1, then we know that 1922 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1922 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1922 is only divisible by 1 and 1922, then it is a prime number, and if 1922 is divisible by more than 1922 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1922 are as follows:
1, 2, 31, 62, 961, 1922
Therefore, since 1922 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1922 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 1923 prime or composite?
