To determine if 6270 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6270.
If the factors of 6270 are only 6270 and 1, then we know that 6270 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6270 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6270 is only divisible by 1 and 6270, then it is a prime number, and if 6270 is divisible by more than 6270 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6270 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 11, 15, 19, 22, 30, 33, 38, 55, 57, 66, 95, 110, 114, 165, 190, 209, 285, 330, 418, 570, 627, 1045, 1254, 2090, 3135, 6270
Therefore, since 6270 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 6270 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
