To determine if 2674 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 2674.
If the factors of 2674 are only 2674 and 1, then we know that 2674 is a prime number. Otherwise, 2674 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 2674 is only divisible by 1 and 2674, then it is a prime number, and if 2674 is divisible by more than 2674 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 2674 are as follows:
1, 2, 7, 14, 191, 382, 1337, 2674
Therefore, since 2674 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 2674 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
