To determine if 7660 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7660.
If the factors of 7660 are only 7660 and 1, then we know that 7660 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7660 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7660 is only divisible by 1 and 7660, then it is a prime number, and if 7660 is divisible by more than 7660 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7660 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 383, 766, 1532, 1915, 3830, 7660
Therefore, since 7660 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 7660 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 7661 prime or composite?
