To determine if 8058 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 8058.
If the factors of 8058 are only 8058 and 1, then we know that 8058 is a prime number. Otherwise, 8058 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 8058 is only divisible by 1 and 8058, then it is a prime number, and if 8058 is divisible by more than 8058 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 8058 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 6, 17, 34, 51, 79, 102, 158, 237, 474, 1343, 2686, 4029, 8058
Therefore, since 8058 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 8058 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 8059 prime or composite?
