Factors of 4010:
- If we have taken numbers from 1, 2, 3…for checking factors of 4010 we found that 4010 has factors 1, 2, 5, 10, 401, 802, 2005 and 4010. Hence, we must say that 4010 is a composite number.
- Thus, 4010 is the composite number.
- If we multiply 4010 by 1, 2, 3 then we get the multiples of 4010 which are 4010, 8020 and so on.
About the number 4010:
- 4010 has more than two factors which are 1, 2, 5, 10, 401, 802, 2005 and 4010 and hence it is the composite number.
- 4010 is the even composite number and it is not the perfect square also.
- If we divide 4010 by, 1, 2, 5, 10, 401, 802, 2005 and 4010 then we get remainder as zero. Hence, 1, 2, 5, 10, 401, 802, 2005 and 4010 are the factors of 4010.
Note:
- 4010 is not the perfect square.
- Factors of 4010: 1, 2, 5, 10, 401, 802, 2005 and 4010
- Prime factors of 4010: 2, 5, 401
Conclusion:
- 4010 is the composite number which has factors, 1, 2, 5, 10, 401, 802, 2005 and 4010
- And hence, 4010 is not the prime number.
