To determine if 3328 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 3328.
If the factors of 3328 are only 3328 and 1, then we know that 3328 is a prime number. Otherwise, 3328 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 3328 is only divisible by 1 and 3328, then it is a prime number, and if 3328 is divisible by more than 3328 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 3328 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 8, 13, 16, 26, 32, 52, 64, 104, 128, 208, 256, 416, 832, 1664, 3328
Therefore, since 3328 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 3328 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
