To determine if 2675 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 2675.
If the factors of 2675 are only 2675 and 1, then we know that 2675 is a prime number. Otherwise, 2675 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 2675 is only divisible by 1 and 2675, then it is a prime number, and if 2675 is divisible by more than 2675 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 2675 are as follows:
1, 5, 25, 107, 535, 2675
Therefore, since 2675 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 2675 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
