To determine if 6010 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6010.
If the factors of 6010 are only 6010 and 1, then we know that 6010 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6010 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6010 is only divisible by 1 and 6010, then it is a prime number, and if 6010 is divisible by more than 6010 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6010 are as follows:
1, 2, 5, 10, 601, 1202, 3005, 6010
Therefore, since 6010 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 6010 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 6011 prime or composite?
