To determine if 6931 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6931.
If the factors of 6931 are only 6931 and 1, then we know that 6931 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6931 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6931 is only divisible by 1 and 6931, then it is a prime number, and if 6931 is divisible by more than 6931 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6931 are as follows:
