To determine if 6611 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6611.
If the factors of 6611 are only 6611 and 1, then we know that 6611 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6611 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6611 is only divisible by 1 and 6611, then it is a prime number, and if 6611 is divisible by more than 6611 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6611 are as follows:
1, 11, 601, 6611
Therefore, since 6611 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 6611 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 6612 prime or composite?
