Factors of 3010:
- If we have taken numbers from 1, 2, 3…for checking factors of 3010, we found that 3010 has factors 1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 14, 35, 43, 70, 86, 215, 301, 430, 602, 1505 and 3010. Hence, we must say that 3010 is a composite number.
- Thus, 3010 is the composite number.
- If we multiply 3010 by 1, 2, 3 then we get the multiples of 3010 which are 3010, 6020 and so on.
About the number 3010:
- 3010 has more than two factors which are 1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 14, 35, 43, 70, 86, 215, 301, 430, 602, 1505 and 3010 and hence it is the composite number.
- 3010 is the even composite number and it is not the perfect square also.
- If we divide 3010 by, 1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 14, 35, 43, 70, 86, 215, 301, 430, 602, 1505 and 3010 then we get remainder as zero. Hence, 1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 14, 35, 43, 70, 86, 215, 301, 430, 602, 1505 and 3010 are the factors of 3010.
Note:
- 3010 is not the perfect square.
- Factors of 3010: 1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 14, 35, 43, 70, 86, 215, 301, 430, 602, 1505 and 3010
- Prime factors of 3010: 2, 5, 7, 43
Conclusion:
- 3010 is the composite number which has factors, 1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 14, 35, 43, 70, 86, 215, 301, 430, 602, 1505 and 3010
- And hence, 3010 is not the prime number.
