To determine if 5326 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 5326.
If the factors of 5326 are only 5326 and 1, then we know that 5326 is a prime number. Otherwise, 5326 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 5326 is only divisible by 1 and 5326, then it is a prime number, and if 5326 is divisible by more than 5326 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 5326 are as follows:
