To determine if 9204 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9204.
If the factors of 9204 are only 9204 and 1, then we know that 9204 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9204 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9204 is only divisible by 1 and 9204, then it is a prime number, and if 9204 is divisible by more than 9204 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9204 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 13, 26, 39, 52, 59, 78, 118, 156, 177, 236, 354, 708, 767, 1534, 2301, 3068, 4602, 9204
Therefore, since 9204 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 9204 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
