To determine if 6106 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6106.
If the factors of 6106 are only 6106 and 1, then we know that 6106 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6106 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6106 is only divisible by 1 and 6106, then it is a prime number, and if 6106 is divisible by more than 6106 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6106 are as follows:
1, 2, 43, 71, 86, 142, 3053, 6106
Therefore, since 6106 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
