2539is an odd number,as it is not divisible by 2
The factors for 2539 are all the numbers between -2539 and 2539 , which divide 2539 without leaving any remainder. Since 2539 divided by -2539 is an integer, -2539 is a factor of 2539 .
Since 2539 divided by -2539 is a whole number, -2539 is a factor of 2539
Since 2539 divided by -1 is a whole number, -1 is a factor of 2539
Since 2539 divided by 1 is a whole number, 1 is a factor of 2539
Multiples of 2539 are all integers divisible by 2539 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 2539 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 2539. The smallest multiples of 2539 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 2539 since 0 × 2539 = 0
2539 : in fact, 2539 is a multiple of itself, since 2539 is divisible by 2539 (it was 2539 / 2539 = 1, so the rest of this division is zero)
5078: in fact, 5078 = 2539 × 2
7617: in fact, 7617 = 2539 × 3

It is possible to determine using mathematical techniques whether an integer is prime or not.
for 2539, the answer is: yes, 2539 is a prime number because it only has two different divisors: 1 and itself (2539).
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 2539). 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 50.388 ). 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.
