3221is an odd number,as it is not divisible by 2
The factors for 3221 are all the numbers between -3221 and 3221 , which divide 3221 without leaving any remainder. Since 3221 divided by -3221 is an integer, -3221 is a factor of 3221 .
Since 3221 divided by -3221 is a whole number, -3221 is a factor of 3221
Since 3221 divided by -1 is a whole number, -1 is a factor of 3221
Since 3221 divided by 1 is a whole number, 1 is a factor of 3221
Multiples of 3221 are all integers divisible by 3221 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 3221 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 3221. The smallest multiples of 3221 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 3221 since 0 × 3221 = 0
3221 : in fact, 3221 is a multiple of itself, since 3221 is divisible by 3221 (it was 3221 / 3221 = 1, so the rest of this division is zero)
6442: in fact, 6442 = 3221 × 2
9663: in fact, 9663 = 3221 × 3
12884: in fact, 12884 = 3221 × 4
16105: in fact, 16105 = 3221 × 5
etc.
It is possible to determine using mathematical techniques whether an integer is prime or not.
for 3221, the answer is: yes, 3221 is a prime number because it only has two different divisors: 1 and itself (3221).
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 3221). 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 56.754 ). 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.
