To determine if 7362 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7362.
If the factors of 7362 are only 7362 and 1, then we know that 7362 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7362 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7362 is only divisible by 1 and 7362, then it is a prime number, and if 7362 is divisible by more than 7362 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7362 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 409, 818, 1227, 2454, 3681, 7362
Therefore, since 7362 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 7362 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
