To determine if 7758 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7758.
If the factors of 7758 are only 7758 and 1, then we know that 7758 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7758 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7758 is only divisible by 1 and 7758, then it is a prime number, and if 7758 is divisible by more than 7758 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7758 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 431, 862, 1293, 2586, 3879, 7758
