To determine if 6710 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6710.
If the factors of 6710 are only 6710 and 1, then we know that 6710 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6710 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6710 is only divisible by 1 and 6710, then it is a prime number, and if 6710 is divisible by more than 6710 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6710 are as follows:
1, 2, 5, 10, 11, 22, 55, 61, 110, 122, 305, 610, 671, 1342, 3355, 6710
Therefore, since 6710 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 6710 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 6711 prime or composite?
