How advanced is your course or class? The best is to know the common rules about factoring. Knowing if a number is prime or not is tricky after the first hundred natural numbers. If the 6digit number is odd, look in a table of prime numbers. If it's not there, then some factorization will be possible.

Remember the rules for 2, 3, 5, 9, 10. After those, start checking about prime factors.
