Is 122 a prime or composite number?

Answer

Number 122 is not a Prime

122 = 2 × 61

122 has 4 divisors — 1, 2, 61 and 122; a prime has exactly two: 1 and itself.

Primes up to √122

11² = 121 ≤ 122 < 144 = 12², so it is enough to try primes up to 11

  • ÷2 divides

122 ÷ 2 = 61 — 2 divides 122, so 122 is composite

Nearest primes: 113 and 127
