To determine if 2067 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 2067.
If the factors of 2067 are only 2067 and 1, then we know that 2067 is a prime number. Otherwise, 2067 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 2067 is only divisible by 1 and 2067, then it is a prime number, and if 2067 is divisible by more than 2067 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 2067 are as follows:
1, 3, 13, 39, 53, 159, 689, 2067
Therefore, since 2067 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 2067 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 2068 prime or composite?
