In addition we can say of the number 334 that it is even
334 is an even number, as it is divisible by 2 : 334/2 = 167
The factors for 334 are all the numbers between -334 and 334 , which divide 334 without leaving any remainder. Since 334 divided by -334 is an integer, -334 is a factor of 334 .
Since 334 divided by -334 is a whole number, -334 is a factor of 334
Since 334 divided by -167 is a whole number, -167 is a factor of 334
Since 334 divided by -2 is a whole number, -2 is a factor of 334
Since 334 divided by -1 is a whole number, -1 is a factor of 334
Since 334 divided by 1 is a whole number, 1 is a factor of 334
Since 334 divided by 2 is a whole number, 2 is a factor of 334

Multiples of 334 are all integers divisible by 334 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 334 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 334. The smallest multiples of 334 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 334 since 0 × 334 = 0
334 : in fact, 334 is a multiple of itself, since 334 is divisible by 334 (it was 334 / 334 = 1, so the rest of this division is zero)
etc.
It is possible to determine using mathematical techniques whether an integer is prime or not.
for 334, the answer is: No, 334 is not a prime number.
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 334). 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 18.276 ). 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.
