To determine if 9101 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9101.
If the factors of 9101 are only 9101 and 1, then we know that 9101 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9101 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9101 is only divisible by 1 and 9101, then it is a prime number, and if 9101 is divisible by more than 9101 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9101 are as follows:
1, 19, 479, 9101
Therefore, since 9101 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 9101 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 9102 prime or composite?
