To determine if 9152 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9152.
If the factors of 9152 are only 9152 and 1, then we know that 9152 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9152 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9152 is only divisible by 1 and 9152, then it is a prime number, and if 9152 is divisible by more than 9152 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9152 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 13, 16, 22, 26, 32, 44, 52, 64, 88, 104, 143, 176, 208, 286, 352, 416, 572, 704, 832, 1144, 2288, 4576, 9152
