683is an odd number,as it is not divisible by 2
The factors for 683 are all the numbers between -683 and 683 , which divide 683 without leaving any remainder. Since 683 divided by -683 is an integer, -683 is a factor of 683 .
Since 683 divided by -683 is a whole number, -683 is a factor of 683
Since 683 divided by -1 is a whole number, -1 is a factor of 683
Since 683 divided by 1 is a whole number, 1 is a factor of 683
Multiples of 683 are all integers divisible by 683 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 683 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 683. The smallest multiples of 683 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 683 since 0 × 683 = 0
683 : in fact, 683 is a multiple of itself, since 683 is divisible by 683 (it was 683 / 683 = 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 683, the answer is: yes, 683 is a prime number because it only has two different divisors: 1 and itself (683).
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 683). 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 26.134 ). 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.
