To determine if 2193 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 2193.
If the factors of 2193 are only 2193 and 1, then we know that 2193 is a prime number. Otherwise, 2193 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 2193 is only divisible by 1 and 2193, then it is a prime number, and if 2193 is divisible by more than 2193 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 2193 are as follows:
1, 3, 17, 43, 51, 129, 731, 2193
Therefore, since 2193 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
