To determine if 1075 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1075.
If the factors of 1075 are only 1075 and 1, then we know that 1075 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1075 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1075 is only divisible by 1 and 1075, then it is a prime number, and if 1075 is divisible by more than 1075 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1075 are as follows:
1, 5, 25, 43, 215, 1075
Therefore, since 1075 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1075 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 1076 prime or composite?
