To determine if 7328 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7328.
If the factors of 7328 are only 7328 and 1, then we know that 7328 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7328 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7328 is only divisible by 1 and 7328, then it is a prime number, and if 7328 is divisible by more than 7328 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7328 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 229, 458, 916, 1832, 3664, 7328
Therefore, since 7328 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
