To determine if 7644 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7644.
If the factors of 7644 are only 7644 and 1, then we know that 7644 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7644 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7644 is only divisible by 1 and 7644, then it is a prime number, and if 7644 is divisible by more than 7644 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7644 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 13, 14, 21, 26, 28, 39, 42, 49, 52, 78, 84, 91, 98, 147, 156, 182, 196, 273, 294, 364, 546, 588, 637, 1092, 1274, 1911, 2548, 3822, 7644
Therefore, since 7644 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 7644 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
