To determine if 8064 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 8064.
If the factors of 8064 are only 8064 and 1, then we know that 8064 is a prime number. Otherwise, 8064 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 8064 is only divisible by 1 and 8064, then it is a prime number, and if 8064 is divisible by more than 8064 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 8064 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12, 14, 16, 18, 21, 24, 28, 32, 36, 42, 48, 56, 63, 64, 72, 84, 96, 112, 126, 128, 144, 168, 192, 224, 252, 288, 336, 384, 448, 504, 576, 672, 896, 1008, 1152, 1344, 2016, 2688, 4032, 8064
Therefore, since 8064 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 8064 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 8065 prime or composite?
