To determine if 8022 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 8022.
If the factors of 8022 are only 8022 and 1, then we know that 8022 is a prime number. Otherwise, 8022 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 8022 is only divisible by 1 and 8022, then it is a prime number, and if 8022 is divisible by more than 8022 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 8022 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42, 191, 382, 573, 1146, 1337, 2674, 4011, 8022
Therefore, since 8022 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 8022 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 8023 prime or composite?
