To determine if 3363 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 3363.
If the factors of 3363 are only 3363 and 1, then we know that 3363 is a prime number. Otherwise, 3363 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 3363 is only divisible by 1 and 3363, then it is a prime number, and if 3363 is divisible by more than 3363 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 3363 are as follows:
1, 3, 19, 57, 59, 177, 1121, 3363
Therefore, since 3363 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 3363 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
