To determine if 6764 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6764.
If the factors of 6764 are only 6764 and 1, then we know that 6764 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6764 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6764 is only divisible by 1 and 6764, then it is a prime number, and if 6764 is divisible by more than 6764 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6764 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 19, 38, 76, 89, 178, 356, 1691, 3382, 6764
Therefore, since 6764 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 6764 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
