To determine if 8210 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 8210.
If the factors of 8210 are only 8210 and 1, then we know that 8210 is a prime number. Otherwise, 8210 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 8210 is only divisible by 1 and 8210, then it is a prime number, and if 8210 is divisible by more than 8210 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 8210 are as follows:
1, 2, 5, 10, 821, 1642, 4105, 8210
Therefore, since 8210 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 8210 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
