To determine if 6954 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6954.
If the factors of 6954 are only 6954 and 1, then we know that 6954 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6954 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6954 is only divisible by 1 and 6954, then it is a prime number, and if 6954 is divisible by more than 6954 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6954 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 6, 19, 38, 57, 61, 114, 122, 183, 366, 1159, 2318, 3477, 6954
Therefore, since 6954 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 6954 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
