To determine if 6268 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6268.
If the factors of 6268 are only 6268 and 1, then we know that 6268 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6268 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6268 is only divisible by 1 and 6268, then it is a prime number, and if 6268 is divisible by more than 6268 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6268 are as follows:
