To determine if 1924 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1924.
If the factors of 1924 are only 1924 and 1, then we know that 1924 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1924 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1924 is only divisible by 1 and 1924, then it is a prime number, and if 1924 is divisible by more than 1924 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1924 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 13, 26, 37, 52, 74, 148, 481, 962, 1924
Therefore, since 1924 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1924 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 1925 prime or composite?
