To determine if 2411 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 2411.
If the factors of 2411 are only 2411 and 1, then we know that 2411 is a prime number. Otherwise, 2411 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 2411 is only divisible by 1 and 2411, then it is a prime number, and if 2411 is divisible by more than 2411 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 2411 are as follows:
