To determine if 8833 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 8833.
If the factors of 8833 are only 8833 and 1, then we know that 8833 is a prime number. Otherwise, 8833 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 8833 is only divisible by 1 and 8833, then it is a prime number, and if 8833 is divisible by more than 8833 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 8833 are as follows:
1, 11, 73, 121, 803, 8833
Therefore, since 8833 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 8833 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
