To determine if 6528 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6528.
If the factors of 6528 are only 6528 and 1, then we know that 6528 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6528 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6528 is only divisible by 1 and 6528, then it is a prime number, and if 6528 is divisible by more than 6528 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6528 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 17, 24, 32, 34, 48, 51, 64, 68, 96, 102, 128, 136, 192, 204, 272, 384, 408, 544, 816, 1088, 1632, 2176, 3264, 6528
Therefore, since 6528 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 6528 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
