To determine if 2813 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 2813.
If the factors of 2813 are only 2813 and 1, then we know that 2813 is a prime number. Otherwise, 2813 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 2813 is only divisible by 1 and 2813, then it is a prime number, and if 2813 is divisible by more than 2813 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 2813 are as follows:
