2909is an odd number,as it is not divisible by 2
The factors for 2909 are all the numbers between -2909 and 2909 , which divide 2909 without leaving any remainder. Since 2909 divided by -2909 is an integer, -2909 is a factor of 2909 .
Since 2909 divided by -2909 is a whole number, -2909 is a factor of 2909
Since 2909 divided by -1 is a whole number, -1 is a factor of 2909
Since 2909 divided by 1 is a whole number, 1 is a factor of 2909
Multiples of 2909 are all integers divisible by 2909 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 2909 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 2909. The smallest multiples of 2909 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 2909 since 0 × 2909 = 0
2909 : in fact, 2909 is a multiple of itself, since 2909 is divisible by 2909 (it was 2909 / 2909 = 1, so the rest of this division is zero)
5818: in fact, 5818 = 2909 × 2
8727: in fact, 8727 = 2909 × 3

It is possible to determine using mathematical techniques whether an integer is prime or not.
for 2909, the answer is: yes, 2909 is a prime number because it only has two different divisors: 1 and itself (2909).
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 2909). 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 53.935 ). 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.
