To determine if 1095 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1095.
If the factors of 1095 are only 1095 and 1, then we know that 1095 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1095 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1095 is only divisible by 1 and 1095, then it is a prime number, and if 1095 is divisible by more than 1095 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1095 are as follows:
1, 3, 5, 15, 73, 219, 365, 1095
Therefore, since 1095 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1095 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 1096 prime or composite?
