To determine if 6806 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6806.
If the factors of 6806 are only 6806 and 1, then we know that 6806 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6806 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6806 is only divisible by 1 and 6806, then it is a prime number, and if 6806 is divisible by more than 6806 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6806 are as follows:
1, 2, 41, 82, 83, 166, 3403, 6806
Therefore, since 6806 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
