To determine if 6610 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6610.
If the factors of 6610 are only 6610 and 1, then we know that 6610 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6610 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6610 is only divisible by 1 and 6610, then it is a prime number, and if 6610 is divisible by more than 6610 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6610 are as follows:
1, 2, 5, 10, 661, 1322, 3305, 6610
Therefore, since 6610 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 6610 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
