2657is an odd number,as it is not divisible by 2
The factors for 2657 are all the numbers between -2657 and 2657 , which divide 2657 without leaving any remainder. Since 2657 divided by -2657 is an integer, -2657 is a factor of 2657 .
Since 2657 divided by -2657 is a whole number, -2657 is a factor of 2657
Since 2657 divided by -1 is a whole number, -1 is a factor of 2657
Since 2657 divided by 1 is a whole number, 1 is a factor of 2657
Multiples of 2657 are all integers divisible by 2657 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 2657 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 2657. The smallest multiples of 2657 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 2657 since 0 × 2657 = 0
2657 : in fact, 2657 is a multiple of itself, since 2657 is divisible by 2657 (it was 2657 / 2657 = 1, so the rest of this division is zero)
5314: in fact, 5314 = 2657 × 2
7971: in fact, 7971 = 2657 × 3

It is possible to determine using mathematical techniques whether an integer is prime or not.
for 2657, the answer is: yes, 2657 is a prime number because it only has two different divisors: 1 and itself (2657).
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 2657). 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 51.546 ). 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.
