To determine if 7334 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7334.
If the factors of 7334 are only 7334 and 1, then we know that 7334 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7334 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7334 is only divisible by 1 and 7334, then it is a prime number, and if 7334 is divisible by more than 7334 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7334 are as follows:
1, 2, 19, 38, 193, 386, 3667, 7334
