To determine if 3352 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 3352.
If the factors of 3352 are only 3352 and 1, then we know that 3352 is a prime number. Otherwise, 3352 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 3352 is only divisible by 1 and 3352, then it is a prime number, and if 3352 is divisible by more than 3352 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 3352 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 8, 419, 838, 1676, 3352
Therefore, since 3352 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
