To determine if 5361 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 5361.
If the factors of 5361 are only 5361 and 1, then we know that 5361 is a prime number. Otherwise, 5361 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 5361 is only divisible by 1 and 5361, then it is a prime number, and if 5361 is divisible by more than 5361 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 5361 are as follows:
1, 3, 1787, 5361
Therefore, since 5361 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 5361 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
