To determine if 5019 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 5019.
If the factors of 5019 are only 5019 and 1, then we know that 5019 is a prime number. Otherwise, 5019 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 5019 is only divisible by 1 and 5019, then it is a prime number, and if 5019 is divisible by more than 5019 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 5019 are as follows:
1, 3, 7, 21, 239, 717, 1673, 5019
Therefore, since 5019 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 5019 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
