To determine if 7062 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7062.
If the factors of 7062 are only 7062 and 1, then we know that 7062 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7062 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7062 is only divisible by 1 and 7062, then it is a prime number, and if 7062 is divisible by more than 7062 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7062 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 6, 11, 22, 33, 66, 107, 214, 321, 642, 1177, 2354, 3531, 7062
Therefore, since 7062 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 7062 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 7063 prime or composite?
