To determine if 2307 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 2307.
If the factors of 2307 are only 2307 and 1, then we know that 2307 is a prime number. Otherwise, 2307 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 2307 is only divisible by 1 and 2307, then it is a prime number, and if 2307 is divisible by more than 2307 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 2307 are as follows:
1, 3, 769, 2307
Therefore, since 2307 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 2307 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
