To determine if 1033 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1033.
If the factors of 1033 are only 1033 and 1, then we know that 1033 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1033 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1033 is only divisible by 1 and 1033, then it is a prime number, and if 1033 is divisible by more than 1033 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1033 are as follows:
