To determine if 3322 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 3322.
If the factors of 3322 are only 3322 and 1, then we know that 3322 is a prime number. Otherwise, 3322 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 3322 is only divisible by 1 and 3322, then it is a prime number, and if 3322 is divisible by more than 3322 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 3322 are as follows:
1, 2, 11, 22, 151, 302, 1661, 3322
Therefore, since 3322 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 3322 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
