Is 106 a prime or composite number?

Answer

Number 106 is not a Prime

106 = 2 × 53

106 has 4 divisors — 1, 2, 53 and 106; a prime has exactly two: 1 and itself.

Primes up to √106

10² = 100 ≤ 106 < 121 = 11², so it is enough to try primes up to 10

  • ÷2 divides

106 ÷ 2 = 53 — 2 divides 106, so 106 is composite

Nearest primes: 103 and 107
