To determine if 9060 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9060.
If the factors of 9060 are only 9060 and 1, then we know that 9060 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9060 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9060 is only divisible by 1 and 9060, then it is a prime number, and if 9060 is divisible by more than 9060 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9060 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, 60, 151, 302, 453, 604, 755, 906, 1510, 1812, 2265, 3020, 4530, 9060
Therefore, since 9060 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 9060 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 9061 prime or composite?
