To determine if 193 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 193.
If the factors of 193 are only 193 and 1, then we know that 193 is a prime number. Otherwise, 193 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 193 is only divisible by 1 and 193, then it is a prime number, and if 193 is divisible by more than 193 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 193 are as follows:
1, 193
Therefore, since 193 is divisible by only one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 193 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
prime
Is 194 prime or composite?
