To determine if 633 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 633.
If the factors of 633 are only 633 and 1, then we know that 633 is a prime number. Otherwise, 633 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 633 is only divisible by 1 and 633, then it is a prime number, and if 633 is divisible by more than 633 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 633 are as follows:
1, 3, 211, 633
Therefore, since 633 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 633 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 634 prime or composite?
OK. Now you know that 633 is a composite number. Use our logic above and see if
you can figure out if the next number on our list is prime or composite before you check your answer.
