To determine if 7108 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7108.
If the factors of 7108 are only 7108 and 1, then we know that 7108 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7108 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7108 is only divisible by 1 and 7108, then it is a prime number, and if 7108 is divisible by more than 7108 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7108 are as follows:
