To determine if 6867 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6867.
If the factors of 6867 are only 6867 and 1, then we know that 6867 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6867 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6867 is only divisible by 1 and 6867, then it is a prime number, and if 6867 is divisible by more than 6867 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6867 are as follows:
1, 3, 7, 9, 21, 63, 109, 327, 763, 981, 2289, 6867
