Is 637 a prime or composite number?

Answer

Number 637 is not a Prime

637 = 7² × 13

637 has 6 divisors — 1, 7, 13, 49, 91 and 637; a prime has exactly two: 1 and itself.

Primes up to √637

25² = 625 ≤ 637 < 676 = 26², so it is enough to try primes up to 25

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

637 ÷ 7 = 91 — 7 divides 637, so 637 is composite

Nearest primes: 631 and 641
