347is an odd number,as it is not divisible by 2
The factors for 347 are all the numbers between -347 and 347 , which divide 347 without leaving any remainder. Since 347 divided by -347 is an integer, -347 is a factor of 347 .
Since 347 divided by -347 is a whole number, -347 is a factor of 347
Since 347 divided by -1 is a whole number, -1 is a factor of 347
Since 347 divided by 1 is a whole number, 1 is a factor of 347
Multiples of 347 are all integers divisible by 347 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 347 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 347. The smallest multiples of 347 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 347 since 0 × 347 = 0
347 : in fact, 347 is a multiple of itself, since 347 is divisible by 347 (it was 347 / 347 = 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 347, the answer is: yes, 347 is a prime number because it only has two different divisors: 1 and itself (347).
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 347). 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 18.628 ). 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.
