To determine if 5033 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 5033.
If the factors of 5033 are only 5033 and 1, then we know that 5033 is a prime number. Otherwise, 5033 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 5033 is only divisible by 1 and 5033, then it is a prime number, and if 5033 is divisible by more than 5033 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 5033 are as follows:
1, 7, 719, 5033
Therefore, since 5033 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 5033 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 5034 prime or composite?
