2371is an odd number,as it is not divisible by 2
The factors for 2371 are all the numbers between -2371 and 2371 , which divide 2371 without leaving any remainder. Since 2371 divided by -2371 is an integer, -2371 is a factor of 2371 .
Since 2371 divided by -2371 is a whole number, -2371 is a factor of 2371
Since 2371 divided by -1 is a whole number, -1 is a factor of 2371
Since 2371 divided by 1 is a whole number, 1 is a factor of 2371
Multiples of 2371 are all integers divisible by 2371 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 2371 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 2371. The smallest multiples of 2371 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 2371 since 0 × 2371 = 0
2371 : in fact, 2371 is a multiple of itself, since 2371 is divisible by 2371 (it was 2371 / 2371 = 1, so the rest of this division is zero)
4742: in fact, 4742 = 2371 × 2
7113: in fact, 7113 = 2371 × 3
9484: in fact, 9484 = 2371 × 4
11855: in fact, 11855 = 2371 × 5
etc.
It is possible to determine using mathematical techniques whether an integer is prime or not.
for 2371, the answer is: yes, 2371 is a prime number because it only has two different divisors: 1 and itself (2371).
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 2371). 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 48.693 ). 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.
