To determine if 2614 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 2614.
If the factors of 2614 are only 2614 and 1, then we know that 2614 is a prime number. Otherwise, 2614 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 2614 is only divisible by 1 and 2614, then it is a prime number, and if 2614 is divisible by more than 2614 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 2614 are as follows:
1, 2, 1307, 2614
Therefore, since 2614 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 2614 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
