To determine if 1035 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1035.
If the factors of 1035 are only 1035 and 1, then we know that 1035 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1035 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1035 is only divisible by 1 and 1035, then it is a prime number, and if 1035 is divisible by more than 1035 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1035 are as follows:
1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 23, 45, 69, 115, 207, 345, 1035
Therefore, since 1035 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1035 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 1036 prime or composite?
