To determine if 3326 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 3326.
If the factors of 3326 are only 3326 and 1, then we know that 3326 is a prime number. Otherwise, 3326 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 3326 is only divisible by 1 and 3326, then it is a prime number, and if 3326 is divisible by more than 3326 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 3326 are as follows:
1, 2, 1663, 3326
Therefore, since 3326 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 3326 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
