1741is an odd number,as it is not divisible by 2
The factors for 1741 are all the numbers between -1741 and 1741 , which divide 1741 without leaving any remainder. Since 1741 divided by -1741 is an integer, -1741 is a factor of 1741 .
Since 1741 divided by -1741 is a whole number, -1741 is a factor of 1741
Since 1741 divided by -1 is a whole number, -1 is a factor of 1741
Since 1741 divided by 1 is a whole number, 1 is a factor of 1741
Multiples of 1741 are all integers divisible by 1741 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 1741 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 1741. The smallest multiples of 1741 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 1741 since 0 × 1741 = 0
1741 : in fact, 1741 is a multiple of itself, since 1741 is divisible by 1741 (it was 1741 / 1741 = 1, so the rest of this division is zero)
3482: in fact, 3482 = 1741 × 2
5223: in fact, 5223 = 1741 × 3
6964: in fact, 6964 = 1741 × 4
8705: in fact, 8705 = 1741 × 5
etc.
It is possible to determine using mathematical techniques whether an integer is prime or not.
for 1741, the answer is: yes, 1741 is a prime number because it only has two different divisors: 1 and itself (1741).
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 1741). 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 41.725 ). 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.
