To determine if 7018 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7018.
If the factors of 7018 are only 7018 and 1, then we know that 7018 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7018 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7018 is only divisible by 1 and 7018, then it is a prime number, and if 7018 is divisible by more than 7018 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7018 are as follows:
1, 2, 11, 22, 29, 58, 121, 242, 319, 638, 3509, 7018
Therefore, since 7018 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 7018 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 7019 prime or composite?
