Primes up to √589

24² = 576 ≤ 589 < 625 = 25², so it is enough to try primes up to 24

  • ÷2 does not divide
  • ÷3 does not divide
  • ÷5 does not divide
  • ÷7 does not divide
  • ÷11 does not divide
  • ÷13 does not divide
  • ÷17 does not divide
  • ÷19 divides

589 ÷ 19 = 31 — 19 divides 589, so 589 is composite
