To determine if 6808 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6808.
If the factors of 6808 are only 6808 and 1, then we know that 6808 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6808 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6808 is only divisible by 1 and 6808, then it is a prime number, and if 6808 is divisible by more than 6808 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6808 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 8, 23, 37, 46, 74, 92, 148, 184, 296, 851, 1702, 3404, 6808
Therefore, since 6808 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 6808 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
