Prime Numbers

A prime number is a number that has exactly two factors: 1 and itself. All whole numbers greater than 1 are either prime numbers or can be written as the product of prime numbers. There are an infinite number of prime numbers, but they occur less frequently among larger numbers. Prime numbers are important in cryptography and number theory.

A factor can or cannot be a prime number

Ex: 2 is the factor of all other even numbers its a prime number

but 9 is a factor of 18 and its not a prime number

A prime is a factor but a factor being a prime number varies

What is the number for CCCVI?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

CCCVI = 306

In Roman Numerals

M = 1000

D = 500

C = 100

L = 50

X = 10

V = 5

I = 1

The highest value letter always goes to the left. If a given value is repeated then it menas addition.

Hence

'C; is higher value than 'V' or 'I' . ( 100 > 5 > 1)

Since 'C; is repeated as CCC it means 100+ 100 + 100 = 300

V = 5

I = 1

So CCCVI = 300 + 5 + 1 = 306

NB If a lower value is to the left of a higher value, it means subtract .

Hence

VI = 5 + 1 = 6 , but IV = 5 - 1 = 4

Is 77 composite or prime?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A prime number is a number that is divisible only by 1 and itself; it has no other factors. A composite number is a number that is divisible by more than 2 numbers. The factors of 77 are 1, 7, 11, and 77. Therefore, 77 is a composite number.

Asked by Wiki User

A composite number is a number that has at least 3 factors. (It can be evenly divided by at least 3 number.)

25 has 3 factors: 1, 5, and 25.

Is 396 prime or compasite?

Asked by Wiki User

396 is a composite number. A prime number has only 2 factors which are 1 and itself. Composite numbers are every other positive integer except 1 and 0. 1 and 0 are neither prime, nor composite.

Is 211 a prime or composite number?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

To determine if 211 is a prime or composite number, we need to check if it has factors other than 1 and itself.

We can try dividing 211 by prime numbers up to its square root, which is approximately 14.5:

211 ÷ 2 = 105.5 (not a whole number)

211 ÷ 3 = 70.333... (not a whole number)

211 ÷ 5 = 42.2 (not a whole number)

211 ÷ 7 = 30.142... (not a whole number)

211 ÷ 11 = 19.181... (not a whole number)

211 ÷ 13 = 16.230... (not a whole number)

As we can see, none of these divisions result in a whole number. So, 211 is not divisible by any prime number less than its square root.

Therefore, 211 only has factors of 1 and itself, which means it is a prime number.

Is 294 a Prime or Composite number?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

We must ascertain whether 294 contains factors other than 1 and itself in order to classify it as a prime or composite number.

To start, we can see if it can be divided by any prime integer smaller than its square root, or roughly 17. As we examine the prime numbers that are smaller than 17:

294 ÷ 2 = 147 (a non-integer)

294 ÷ 3 = 98 (a non-integer)

58.8 (not a whole number) = 294 ÷ 5

42 (a whole number) = 294 ÷ 7

Thus, 294 divides by 7.

Given that 294 divides evenly by 7, it has factors besides 1. 294 is a composite number as a result.

Is 2257 a prime number or a composite number?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

To determine whether 2257 is a prime number or a composite number, we need to check if it has factors other than 1 and itself.

The factors of 2257 would be all the whole numbers that divide evenly into 2257. We can start checking divisibility by smaller prime numbers:

2257 is not divisible by 2 (because it's an odd number).

2257 is not divisible by 3 (the sum of its digits is not divisible by 3).

2257 is not divisible by 5 (because it doesn't end in 0 or 5).

2257 is not divisible by 7 (you'd have to do long division to confirm this).

2257 is not divisible by 11 (again, long division).

2257 is not divisible by 13 (long division).

2257 is not divisible by 17 (long division).

2257 is not divisible by 19 (long division).

2257 is not divisible by 23 (long division).

2257 is not divisible by 29 (long division).

And so on...

After checking some of the prime numbers up to its square root, we see that there are no prime factors other than 1 and 2257 itself. Therefore, 2257 is a prime number.
