To determine if 7448 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7448.
If the factors of 7448 are only 7448 and 1, then we know that 7448 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7448 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7448 is only divisible by 1 and 7448, then it is a prime number, and if 7448 is divisible by more than 7448 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7448 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 19, 28, 38, 49, 56, 76, 98, 133, 152, 196, 266, 392, 532, 931, 1064, 1862, 3724, 7448
Therefore, since 7448 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 7448 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
