To determine if 3064 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 3064.
If the factors of 3064 are only 3064 and 1, then we know that 3064 is a prime number. Otherwise, 3064 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 3064 is only divisible by 1 and 3064, then it is a prime number, and if 3064 is divisible by more than 3064 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 3064 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 8, 383, 766, 1532, 3064
Therefore, since 3064 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 3064 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 3065 prime or composite?
