To determine if 7613 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7613.
If the factors of 7613 are only 7613 and 1, then we know that 7613 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7613 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7613 is only divisible by 1 and 7613, then it is a prime number, and if 7613 is divisible by more than 7613 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7613 are as follows:
