<p>The method in which we count the number of divisors to categorize the numbers as prime or composite is called the counting divisors method. Based on the count of the divisors, we categorize prime and composite numbers. If there is a total count of only 2 divisors, then the number would be prime. If the count is more than 2, then the number is composite. Let’s check whether 430 is prime or composite.</p>

<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Divide 430 by 2. It is divisible by 2, so 2 is a factor of 430.</p>
27
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Divide 430 by 3. It is not divisible by 3, so 3 is not a factor of 430.</p>

<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Divide 430 by 3. It is not divisible by 3, so 3 is not a factor of 430.</p>
28
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>You can simplify checking divisors up to 430 by finding the root value. We then need to only check divisors up to the root value.</p>

<p><strong>Divisibility by 5:</strong>The unit’s place digit is 0. Therefore, 430 is divisible by 5.</p>
38
<p><strong>Divisibility by 7:</strong>The last digit in 430 is 0. To check divisibility by 7, double the last digit (0 × 2 = 0). Then, subtract it from the rest of the number (43 - 0 = 43). Since 43 is not divisible by 7, 430 is also not divisible by 7.</p>

39
<p><strong>Divisibility by 11:</strong>In 430, the sum of the digits in odd positions is 4, and the sum of the digits in even positions is 3. The difference is 1, which means that 430 is not divisible by 11.</p>
