To determine if 413 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 413.
If the factors of 413 are only 413 and 1, then we know that 413 is a prime number. Otherwise, 413 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 413 is only divisible by 1 and 413, then it is a prime number, and if 413 is divisible by more than 413 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 413 are as follows:
1, 7, 59, 413
Therefore, since 413 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 413 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 414 prime or composite?
OK. Now you know that 413 is a composite number. Use our logic above and see if
you can figure out if the next number on our list is prime or composite before you check your answer.
