To determine if 7751 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7751.
If the factors of 7751 are only 7751 and 1, then we know that 7751 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7751 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7751 is only divisible by 1 and 7751, then it is a prime number, and if 7751 is divisible by more than 7751 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7751 are as follows:
1, 23, 337, 7751
Therefore, since 7751 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 7751 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 7752 prime or composite?
