To determine if 2275 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 2275.
If the factors of 2275 are only 2275 and 1, then we know that 2275 is a prime number. Otherwise, 2275 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 2275 is only divisible by 1 and 2275, then it is a prime number, and if 2275 is divisible by more than 2275 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 2275 are as follows:
1, 5, 7, 13, 25, 35, 65, 91, 175, 325, 455, 2275
Therefore, since 2275 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 2275 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
