To determine if 7006 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7006.
If the factors of 7006 are only 7006 and 1, then we know that 7006 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7006 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7006 is only divisible by 1 and 7006, then it is a prime number, and if 7006 is divisible by more than 7006 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7006 are as follows:
1, 2, 31, 62, 113, 226, 3503, 7006
Therefore, since 7006 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 7006 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
