To determine if 8206 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 8206.
If the factors of 8206 are only 8206 and 1, then we know that 8206 is a prime number. Otherwise, 8206 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 8206 is only divisible by 1 and 8206, then it is a prime number, and if 8206 is divisible by more than 8206 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 8206 are as follows:
1, 2, 11, 22, 373, 746, 4103, 8206
Therefore, since 8206 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 8206 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
