To determine if 5365 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 5365.
If the factors of 5365 are only 5365 and 1, then we know that 5365 is a prime number. Otherwise, 5365 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 5365 is only divisible by 1 and 5365, then it is a prime number, and if 5365 is divisible by more than 5365 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 5365 are as follows:
1, 5, 29, 37, 145, 185, 1073, 5365
Therefore, since 5365 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 5365 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
