To determine if 2907 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 2907.
If the factors of 2907 are only 2907 and 1, then we know that 2907 is a prime number. Otherwise, 2907 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 2907 is only divisible by 1 and 2907, then it is a prime number, and if 2907 is divisible by more than 2907 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 2907 are as follows:
1, 3, 9, 17, 19, 51, 57, 153, 171, 323, 969, 2907
Therefore, since 2907 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 2907 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
