To determine if 932 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 932.
If the factors of 932 are only 932 and 1, then we know that 932 is a prime number. Otherwise, 932 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 932 is only divisible by 1 and 932, then it is a prime number, and if 932 is divisible by more than 932 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 932 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 233, 466, 932
Therefore, since 932 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 932 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 933 prime or composite?
