To determine if 7030 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7030.
If the factors of 7030 are only 7030 and 1, then we know that 7030 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7030 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7030 is only divisible by 1 and 7030, then it is a prime number, and if 7030 is divisible by more than 7030 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7030 are as follows:
1, 2, 5, 10, 19, 37, 38, 74, 95, 185, 190, 370, 703, 1406, 3515, 7030
Therefore, since 7030 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 7030 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 7031 prime or composite?
