2203is an odd number,as it is not divisible by 2
The factors for 2203 are all the numbers between -2203 and 2203 , which divide 2203 without leaving any remainder. Since 2203 divided by -2203 is an integer, -2203 is a factor of 2203 .
Since 2203 divided by -2203 is a whole number, -2203 is a factor of 2203
Since 2203 divided by -1 is a whole number, -1 is a factor of 2203
Since 2203 divided by 1 is a whole number, 1 is a factor of 2203
Multiples of 2203 are all integers divisible by 2203 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 2203 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 2203. The smallest multiples of 2203 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 2203 since 0 × 2203 = 0
2203 : in fact, 2203 is a multiple of itself, since 2203 is divisible by 2203 (it was 2203 / 2203 = 1, so the rest of this division is zero)
4406: in fact, 4406 = 2203 × 2
6609: in fact, 6609 = 2203 × 3
8812: in fact, 8812 = 2203 × 4
11015: in fact, 11015 = 2203 × 5
etc.
It is possible to determine using mathematical techniques whether an integer is prime or not.
for 2203, the answer is: yes, 2203 is a prime number because it only has two different divisors: 1 and itself (2203).
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 2203). 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 46.936 ). 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.
