To determine if 913 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 913.
If the factors of 913 are only 913 and 1, then we know that 913 is a prime number. Otherwise, 913 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 913 is only divisible by 1 and 913, then it is a prime number, and if 913 is divisible by more than 913 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 913 are as follows:
1, 11, 83, 913
Therefore, since 913 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 913 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 914 prime or composite?
