To determine if 2065 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 2065.
If the factors of 2065 are only 2065 and 1, then we know that 2065 is a prime number. Otherwise, 2065 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 2065 is only divisible by 1 and 2065, then it is a prime number, and if 2065 is divisible by more than 2065 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 2065 are as follows:
1, 5, 7, 35, 59, 295, 413, 2065
Therefore, since 2065 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 2065 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 2066 prime or composite?
OK. Now you know that 2065 is a composite number. Use our logic above and see if
you can figure out if the next number on our list is prime or composite before you check your answer.
