To determine if 6092 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6092.
If the factors of 6092 are only 6092 and 1, then we know that 6092 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6092 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6092 is only divisible by 1 and 6092, then it is a prime number, and if 6092 is divisible by more than 6092 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6092 are as follows:
