You need to understand that prime numbers hold only two factors(1 and itself). Even though we are not aware of prime numbers, we apply them to create a unique digital fingerprint of data.
To find the number 367 prime or composite numbers. We need to check the number which holds only two factors, 1 and the number itself. The factors of 367 are 1 and 367, then it becomes the prime number.
If you want to conclude the number is prime or composite, check the divisibility of the number. If the number has two factors, then it is a prime number.
There are different methods to follow, some easy methods to find square roots are given below.
In this counting divisor method, we need to count the divisors of a number. The number, which holds more than two factors, is said to be a composite number.
Let’s check the number 367.
The divisors of 367 = 1, and 367.
As the number holds only two divisors, it is a prime number.
For divisibility rule, the number is greater than 1 and can be divisible by 1 and the number itself. In other words, it can be said that if a prime number is divisible by any number, the quotient is not a whole number. 367 is divisible by 1 and the number itself, therefore, it is a prime number.
In this method, we find the square root by listing the prime number chart:
Here, we list the prime numbers up to 350 = 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97, 101, 103, 107, 109, 113, 127, 131, 137, 139, 149, 151, 157, 163, 167, 173, 179, 181, 191, 193, 197, 199, 211, 233,227, 229, 233, 239, 241, 251, 257, 263, 269, 271, 277, 281, 283, 293, 307, 311, 313, 317, 331, 337, 347, 349.
From the above number chart, we obtained that 367 is a prime number
In this method, we need to find the prime factorization of 367
The prime factorization is said to be the numbers as the product of their prime factors.
Prime factorization of 367 = 1 × 367
Therefore, 367 is not factored into smaller prime factors, 367 is a prime number.
