Is 737 a prime or composite number?

Answer

Number 737 is not a Prime

737 = 11 × 67

737 has 4 divisors — 1, 11, 67 and 737; a prime has exactly two: 1 and itself.

Primes up to √737

27² = 729 ≤ 737 < 784 = 28², so it is enough to try primes up to 27

  • ÷2 does not divide
  • ÷3 does not divide
  • ÷5 does not divide
  • ÷7 does not divide
  • ÷11 divides

737 ÷ 11 = 67 — 11 divides 737, so 737 is composite

Nearest primes: 733 and 739
