To determine if 1675 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1675.
If the factors of 1675 are only 1675 and 1, then we know that 1675 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1675 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1675 is only divisible by 1 and 1675, then it is a prime number, and if 1675 is divisible by more than 1675 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1675 are as follows:
1, 5, 25, 67, 335, 1675
Therefore, since 1675 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1675 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
