To determine if 9933 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9933.
If the factors of 9933 are only 9933 and 1, then we know that 9933 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9933 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9933 is only divisible by 1 and 9933, then it is a prime number, and if 9933 is divisible by more than 9933 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9933 are as follows:
1, 3, 7, 11, 21, 33, 43, 77, 129, 231, 301, 473, 903, 1419, 3311, 9933
Therefore, since 9933 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 9933 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
