To determine if 751 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 751.
If the factors of 751 are only 751 and 1, then we know that 751 is a prime number. Otherwise, 751 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 751 is only divisible by 1 and 751, then it is a prime number, and if 751 is divisible by more than 751 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 751 are as follows:
1, 751
Therefore, since 751 is divisible by only one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 751 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
prime
Is 752 prime or composite?
