To determine if 2625 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 2625.
If the factors of 2625 are only 2625 and 1, then we know that 2625 is a prime number. Otherwise, 2625 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 2625 is only divisible by 1 and 2625, then it is a prime number, and if 2625 is divisible by more than 2625 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 2625 are as follows:
1, 3, 5, 7, 15, 21, 25, 35, 75, 105, 125, 175, 375, 525, 875, 2625
Therefore, since 2625 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 2625 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
