Is 101 a prime or composite number?

Answer

Number 101 is a Prime

101 has exactly two divisors — 1 and 101 — so it is a prime.

Primes up to √101

10² = 100 ≤ 101 < 121 = 11², so it is enough to try primes up to 10

÷2 does not divide
÷3 does not divide
÷5 does not divide
÷7 does not divide

none of the 4 primes up to 10 divides 101 — 101 is prime

Nearest primes: 97 and 103
