To determine if 6022 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6022.
If the factors of 6022 are only 6022 and 1, then we know that 6022 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6022 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6022 is only divisible by 1 and 6022, then it is a prime number, and if 6022 is divisible by more than 6022 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6022 are as follows:
1, 2, 3011, 6022
Therefore, since 6022 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 6022 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
