To determine if 6103 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6103.
If the factors of 6103 are only 6103 and 1, then we know that 6103 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6103 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6103 is only divisible by 1 and 6103, then it is a prime number, and if 6103 is divisible by more than 6103 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6103 are as follows:
