To determine if 6104 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6104.
If the factors of 6104 are only 6104 and 1, then we know that 6104 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6104 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6104 is only divisible by 1 and 6104, then it is a prime number, and if 6104 is divisible by more than 6104 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6104 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56, 109, 218, 436, 763, 872, 1526, 3052, 6104
Therefore, since 6104 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 6104 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 6105 prime or composite?
