To determine if 8410 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 8410.
If the factors of 8410 are only 8410 and 1, then we know that 8410 is a prime number. Otherwise, 8410 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 8410 is only divisible by 1 and 8410, then it is a prime number, and if 8410 is divisible by more than 8410 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 8410 are as follows:
1, 2, 5, 10, 29, 58, 145, 290, 841, 1682, 4205, 8410
Therefore, since 8410 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 8410 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 8411 prime or composite?
