To determine if 6102 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6102.
If the factors of 6102 are only 6102 and 1, then we know that 6102 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6102 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6102 is only divisible by 1 and 6102, then it is a prime number, and if 6102 is divisible by more than 6102 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6102 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54, 113, 226, 339, 678, 1017, 2034, 3051, 6102
Therefore, since 6102 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 6102 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 6103 prime or composite?
