To determine if 9752 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9752.
If the factors of 9752 are only 9752 and 1, then we know that 9752 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9752 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9752 is only divisible by 1 and 9752, then it is a prime number, and if 9752 is divisible by more than 9752 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9752 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 8, 23, 46, 53, 92, 106, 184, 212, 424, 1219, 2438, 4876, 9752
Therefore, since 9752 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 9752 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
