To determine if 3364 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 3364.
If the factors of 3364 are only 3364 and 1, then we know that 3364 is a prime number. Otherwise, 3364 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 3364 is only divisible by 1 and 3364, then it is a prime number, and if 3364 is divisible by more than 3364 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 3364 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 29, 58, 116, 841, 1682, 3364
Therefore, since 3364 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 3364 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
