3181is an odd number,as it is not divisible by 2
The factors for 3181 are all the numbers between -3181 and 3181 , which divide 3181 without leaving any remainder. Since 3181 divided by -3181 is an integer, -3181 is a factor of 3181 .
Since 3181 divided by -3181 is a whole number, -3181 is a factor of 3181
Since 3181 divided by -1 is a whole number, -1 is a factor of 3181
Since 3181 divided by 1 is a whole number, 1 is a factor of 3181
Multiples of 3181 are all integers divisible by 3181 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 3181 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 3181. The smallest multiples of 3181 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 3181 since 0 × 3181 = 0
3181 : in fact, 3181 is a multiple of itself, since 3181 is divisible by 3181 (it was 3181 / 3181 = 1, so the rest of this division is zero)
6362: in fact, 6362 = 3181 × 2
9543: in fact, 9543 = 3181 × 3
12724: in fact, 12724 = 3181 × 4
15905: in fact, 15905 = 3181 × 5
etc.
It is possible to determine using mathematical techniques whether an integer is prime or not.
for 3181, the answer is: yes, 3181 is a prime number because it only has two different divisors: 1 and itself (3181).
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 3181). 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 56.4 ). 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.
