To determine if 2733 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 2733.
If the factors of 2733 are only 2733 and 1, then we know that 2733 is a prime number. Otherwise, 2733 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 2733 is only divisible by 1 and 2733, then it is a prime number, and if 2733 is divisible by more than 2733 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 2733 are as follows:
1, 3, 911, 2733
Therefore, since 2733 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 2733 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
