To determine if 6154 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6154.
If the factors of 6154 are only 6154 and 1, then we know that 6154 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6154 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6154 is only divisible by 1 and 6154, then it is a prime number, and if 6154 is divisible by more than 6154 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6154 are as follows:
