To determine if 6027 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6027.
If the factors of 6027 are only 6027 and 1, then we know that 6027 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6027 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6027 is only divisible by 1 and 6027, then it is a prime number, and if 6027 is divisible by more than 6027 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6027 are as follows:
1, 3, 7, 21, 41, 49, 123, 147, 287, 861, 2009, 6027
Therefore, since 6027 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 6027 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
