To determine if 9380 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9380.
If the factors of 9380 are only 9380 and 1, then we know that 9380 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9380 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9380 is only divisible by 1 and 9380, then it is a prime number, and if 9380 is divisible by more than 9380 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9380 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 10, 14, 20, 28, 35, 67, 70, 134, 140, 268, 335, 469, 670, 938, 1340, 1876, 2345, 4690, 9380
Therefore, since 9380 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 9380 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
