To determine if 8213 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 8213.
If the factors of 8213 are only 8213 and 1, then we know that 8213 is a prime number. Otherwise, 8213 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 8213 is only divisible by 1 and 8213, then it is a prime number, and if 8213 is divisible by more than 8213 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 8213 are as follows:
1, 43, 191, 8213
Therefore, since 8213 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 8213 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
