To determine if 7664 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7664.
If the factors of 7664 are only 7664 and 1, then we know that 7664 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7664 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7664 is only divisible by 1 and 7664, then it is a prime number, and if 7664 is divisible by more than 7664 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7664 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 479, 958, 1916, 3832, 7664
