To determine if 7313 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7313.
If the factors of 7313 are only 7313 and 1, then we know that 7313 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7313 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7313 is only divisible by 1 and 7313, then it is a prime number, and if 7313 is divisible by more than 7313 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7313 are as follows:
1, 71, 103, 7313
Therefore, since 7313 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 7313 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
