To determine if 3566 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 3566.
If the factors of 3566 are only 3566 and 1, then we know that 3566 is a prime number. Otherwise, 3566 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 3566 is only divisible by 1 and 3566, then it is a prime number, and if 3566 is divisible by more than 3566 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 3566 are as follows:
1, 2, 1783, 3566
Therefore, since 3566 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 3566 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
