To determine if 6730 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6730.
If the factors of 6730 are only 6730 and 1, then we know that 6730 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6730 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6730 is only divisible by 1 and 6730, then it is a prime number, and if 6730 is divisible by more than 6730 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6730 are as follows:
1, 2, 5, 10, 673, 1346, 3365, 6730
Therefore, since 6730 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 6730 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
