To determine if 8021 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 8021.
If the factors of 8021 are only 8021 and 1, then we know that 8021 is a prime number. Otherwise, 8021 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 8021 is only divisible by 1 and 8021, then it is a prime number, and if 8021 is divisible by more than 8021 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 8021 are as follows:
1, 13, 617, 8021
Therefore, since 8021 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 8021 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 8022 prime or composite?
