To determine if 6783 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6783.
If the factors of 6783 are only 6783 and 1, then we know that 6783 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6783 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6783 is only divisible by 1 and 6783, then it is a prime number, and if 6783 is divisible by more than 6783 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6783 are as follows:
1, 3, 7, 17, 19, 21, 51, 57, 119, 133, 323, 357, 399, 969, 2261, 6783
Therefore, since 6783 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 6783 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
