To determine if 5011 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 5011.
If the factors of 5011 are only 5011 and 1, then we know that 5011 is a prime number. Otherwise, 5011 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 5011 is only divisible by 1 and 5011, then it is a prime number, and if 5011 is divisible by more than 5011 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 5011 are as follows:
1, 5011
Therefore, since 5011 is divisible by only one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 5011 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
prime
Is 5012 prime or composite?
