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