test whether 221 is a prime or not
Answers
For 221 to be a prime number, it would have been required that 221 has only two divisors, i.e., itself and 1. However, 221 is a semiprime (also called biprime or 2-almost-prime), because it is the product of a two non-necessarily distinct prime numbers. Indeed, 221 = 13 x 17, where 13 and 17 are both prime numbers.
