  • Divisibility Test

 

  • Prime Number Table

 

  • Prime Factorization

Using the Counting Divisors Method

Counting divisors method refers to a type of method where we count the number of divisors of a particular number to find out whether the number is a prime number or not.

 

If we look at 107 we can see that it has only 2 divisors which are 1 and 107 . Since 107 has only 2 divisors, it is a prime number.

Using the Divisibility Test Method

In this test, we try to find out the prime numbers that divide the number without leaving any reminder.

 

Hence, we can see that there are no prime numbers that are able to easily divide 107 without leaving any remainder. Hence, this proves that 107 is a prime number.

Using Prime Number Chart

This is a rather simple method where we write down all the prime numbers until we cross the required number,

 

for example let's write down all the prime numbers from 1 to 110. 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. From looking at the above list, we can see that 107 is a prime number.
