To determine if 5325 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 5325.
If the factors of 5325 are only 5325 and 1, then we know that 5325 is a prime number. Otherwise, 5325 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 5325 is only divisible by 1 and 5325, then it is a prime number, and if 5325 is divisible by more than 5325 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 5325 are as follows:
1, 3, 5, 15, 25, 71, 75, 213, 355, 1065, 1775, 5325
Therefore, since 5325 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 5325 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
