To determine if 2925 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 2925.
If the factors of 2925 are only 2925 and 1, then we know that 2925 is a prime number. Otherwise, 2925 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 2925 is only divisible by 1 and 2925, then it is a prime number, and if 2925 is divisible by more than 2925 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 2925 are as follows:
1, 3, 5, 9, 13, 15, 25, 39, 45, 65, 75, 117, 195, 225, 325, 585, 975, 2925
Therefore, since 2925 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 2925 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
