To determine if 2095 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 2095.
If the factors of 2095 are only 2095 and 1, then we know that 2095 is a prime number. Otherwise, 2095 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 2095 is only divisible by 1 and 2095, then it is a prime number, and if 2095 is divisible by more than 2095 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 2095 are as follows:
1, 5, 419, 2095
Therefore, since 2095 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 2095 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 2096 prime or composite?
