To determine if 3277 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 3277.
If the factors of 3277 are only 3277 and 1, then we know that 3277 is a prime number. Otherwise, 3277 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 3277 is only divisible by 1 and 3277, then it is a prime number, and if 3277 is divisible by more than 3277 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 3277 are as follows:
