To determine if 3025 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 3025.
If the factors of 3025 are only 3025 and 1, then we know that 3025 is a prime number. Otherwise, 3025 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 3025 is only divisible by 1 and 3025, then it is a prime number, and if 3025 is divisible by more than 3025 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 3025 are as follows:
1, 5, 11, 25, 55, 121, 275, 605, 3025
Therefore, since 3025 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 3025 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
