To determine if 5035 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 5035.
If the factors of 5035 are only 5035 and 1, then we know that 5035 is a prime number. Otherwise, 5035 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 5035 is only divisible by 1 and 5035, then it is a prime number, and if 5035 is divisible by more than 5035 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 5035 are as follows:
1, 5, 19, 53, 95, 265, 1007, 5035
Therefore, since 5035 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 5035 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
