To determine if 8083 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 8083.
If the factors of 8083 are only 8083 and 1, then we know that 8083 is a prime number. Otherwise, 8083 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 8083 is only divisible by 1 and 8083, then it is a prime number, and if 8083 is divisible by more than 8083 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 8083 are as follows:
