To determine if 2110 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 2110.
If the factors of 2110 are only 2110 and 1, then we know that 2110 is a prime number. Otherwise, 2110 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 2110 is only divisible by 1 and 2110, then it is a prime number, and if 2110 is divisible by more than 2110 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 2110 are as follows:
1, 2, 5, 10, 211, 422, 1055, 2110
Therefore, since 2110 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 2110 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
