2731is an odd number,as it is not divisible by 2
The factors for 2731 are all the numbers between -2731 and 2731 , which divide 2731 without leaving any remainder. Since 2731 divided by -2731 is an integer, -2731 is a factor of 2731 .
Since 2731 divided by -2731 is a whole number, -2731 is a factor of 2731
Since 2731 divided by -1 is a whole number, -1 is a factor of 2731
Since 2731 divided by 1 is a whole number, 1 is a factor of 2731
Multiples of 2731 are all integers divisible by 2731 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 2731 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 2731. The smallest multiples of 2731 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 2731 since 0 × 2731 = 0
2731 : in fact, 2731 is a multiple of itself, since 2731 is divisible by 2731 (it was 2731 / 2731 = 1, so the rest of this division is zero)
5462: in fact, 5462 = 2731 × 2
8193: in fact, 8193 = 2731 × 3
10924: in fact, 10924 = 2731 × 4
13655: in fact, 13655 = 2731 × 5
etc.
It is possible to determine using mathematical techniques whether an integer is prime or not.
for 2731, the answer is: yes, 2731 is a prime number because it only has two different divisors: 1 and itself (2731).
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 2731). 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 52.259 ). 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.
