To determine if 8192 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 8192.
If the factors of 8192 are only 8192 and 1, then we know that 8192 is a prime number. Otherwise, 8192 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 8192 is only divisible by 1 and 8192, then it is a prime number, and if 8192 is divisible by more than 8192 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 8192 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192
Therefore, since 8192 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 8192 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
