11831is an odd number,as it is not divisible by 2
The factors for 11831 are all the numbers between -11831 and 11831 , which divide 11831 without leaving any remainder. Since 11831 divided by -11831 is an integer, -11831 is a factor of 11831 .
Since 11831 divided by -11831 is a whole number, -11831 is a factor of 11831
Since 11831 divided by -1 is a whole number, -1 is a factor of 11831
Since 11831 divided by 1 is a whole number, 1 is a factor of 11831
Multiples of 11831 are all integers divisible by 11831 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 11831 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 11831. The smallest multiples of 11831 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 11831 since 0 × 11831 = 0
11831 : in fact, 11831 is a multiple of itself, since 11831 is divisible by 11831 (it was 11831 / 11831 = 1, so the rest of this division is zero)
23662: in fact, 23662 = 11831 × 2
35493: in fact, 35493 = 11831 × 3

It is possible to determine using mathematical techniques whether an integer is prime or not.
for 11831, the answer is: yes, 11831 is a prime number because it only has two different divisors: 1 and itself (11831).
To know the primality of an integer, we can use several algorithms. The most naive is to try all divisors below the number you want to know if it is prime (in our case 11831). We can already eliminate even numbers bigger than 2 (then 4 , 6 , 8 ...). Besides, we can stop at the square root of the number in question (here 108.77 ). Historically, the Eratosthenes screen (which dates back to Antiquity) uses this technique relatively effectively.
More modern techniques include the Atkin screen, probabilistic tests, or the cyclotomic test.
