To determine if 7710 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7710.
If the factors of 7710 are only 7710 and 1, then we know that 7710 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7710 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7710 is only divisible by 1 and 7710, then it is a prime number, and if 7710 is divisible by more than 7710 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7710 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30, 257, 514, 771, 1285, 1542, 2570, 3855, 7710
Therefore, since 7710 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 7710 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 7711 prime or composite?
