To determine if 7684 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7684.
If the factors of 7684 are only 7684 and 1, then we know that 7684 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7684 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7684 is only divisible by 1 and 7684, then it is a prime number, and if 7684 is divisible by more than 7684 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7684 are as follows:
