To determine if 2075 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 2075.
If the factors of 2075 are only 2075 and 1, then we know that 2075 is a prime number. Otherwise, 2075 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 2075 is only divisible by 1 and 2075, then it is a prime number, and if 2075 is divisible by more than 2075 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 2075 are as follows:
1, 5, 25, 83, 415, 2075
Therefore, since 2075 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 2075 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 2076 prime or composite?
OK. Now you know that 2075 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.
