To determine if 9031 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9031.
If the factors of 9031 are only 9031 and 1, then we know that 9031 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9031 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9031 is only divisible by 1 and 9031, then it is a prime number, and if 9031 is divisible by more than 9031 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9031 are as follows:
1, 11, 821, 9031
Therefore, since 9031 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 9031 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 9032 prime or composite?
