2357is an odd number,as it is not divisible by 2
The factors for 2357 are all the numbers between -2357 and 2357 , which divide 2357 without leaving any remainder. Since 2357 divided by -2357 is an integer, -2357 is a factor of 2357 .
Since 2357 divided by -2357 is a whole number, -2357 is a factor of 2357
Since 2357 divided by -1 is a whole number, -1 is a factor of 2357
Since 2357 divided by 1 is a whole number, 1 is a factor of 2357
Multiples of 2357 are all integers divisible by 2357 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 2357 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 2357. The smallest multiples of 2357 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 2357 since 0 × 2357 = 0
2357 : in fact, 2357 is a multiple of itself, since 2357 is divisible by 2357 (it was 2357 / 2357 = 1, so the rest of this division is zero)
4714: in fact, 4714 = 2357 × 2
7071: in fact, 7071 = 2357 × 3
9428: in fact, 9428 = 2357 × 4

etc.
It is possible to determine using mathematical techniques whether an integer is prime or not.
for 2357, the answer is: yes, 2357 is a prime number because it only has two different divisors: 1 and itself (2357).
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 2357). 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 48.549 ). 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.
