To determine if 7592 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7592.
If the factors of 7592 are only 7592 and 1, then we know that 7592 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7592 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7592 is only divisible by 1 and 7592, then it is a prime number, and if 7592 is divisible by more than 7592 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7592 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 8, 13, 26, 52, 73, 104, 146, 292, 584, 949, 1898, 3796, 7592
Therefore, since 7592 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 7592 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
