Using the Counting Divisors Method

For the counting divisors method, it is checked whether the number is divisible by any numbers other than 1 and itself.
The counting divisors method for 2763 would be:


Divisors of 2763 = 1, 3, 7, 21, 131, 393, 921, 2763
Number of divisors = 8


The number 2763 can be considered composite.
 

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Using the Divisibility test Method

In the division test, we try to divide the number by any of the prime numbers. If we cannot, then it is considered a prime number.


In the divisibility method, a prime number only has 2 divisors, which are 1 and itself.


The divisors of 2763 are 1, 3, 7, 21, 131, 393, 921, and 2763.


Thus, 2763 consists of 8 factors that divide it completely without any remainder.

Using the Prime Number Chart

The prime number chart is a list of prime numbers starting from 2 to infinity.


The list of prime numbers under 3000 includes numbers such as 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, and so on.


2763 is not present in the list, so it is not a prime number.
