To determine if 5095 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 5095.
If the factors of 5095 are only 5095 and 1, then we know that 5095 is a prime number. Otherwise, 5095 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 5095 is only divisible by 1 and 5095, then it is a prime number, and if 5095 is divisible by more than 5095 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 5095 are as follows:
1, 5, 1019, 5095
Therefore, since 5095 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 5095 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 5096 prime or composite?
