119is an odd number,as it is not divisible by 2
The factors for 119 are all the numbers between -119 and 119 , which divide 119 without leaving any remainder. Since 119 divided by -119 is an integer, -119 is a factor of 119 .
Since 119 divided by -119 is a whole number, -119 is a factor of 119
Since 119 divided by -17 is a whole number, -17 is a factor of 119
Since 119 divided by -7 is a whole number, -7 is a factor of 119
Since 119 divided by -1 is a whole number, -1 is a factor of 119
Since 119 divided by 1 is a whole number, 1 is a factor of 119
Since 119 divided by 7 is a whole number, 7 is a factor of 119

Multiples of 119 are all integers divisible by 119 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 119 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 119. The smallest multiples of 119 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 119 since 0 × 119 = 0
119 : in fact, 119 is a multiple of itself, since 119 is divisible by 119 (it was 119 / 119 = 1, so the rest of this division is zero)
etc.
It is possible to determine using mathematical techniques whether an integer is prime or not.
for 119, the answer is: No, 119 is not a prime number.
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 119). 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 10.909 ). 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.
