To determine if 1329 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1329.
If the factors of 1329 are only 1329 and 1, then we know that 1329 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1329 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1329 is only divisible by 1 and 1329, then it is a prime number, and if 1329 is divisible by more than 1329 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1329 are as follows:
1, 3, 443, 1329
Therefore, since 1329 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1329 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
