To determine if 5411 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 5411.
If the factors of 5411 are only 5411 and 1, then we know that 5411 is a prime number. Otherwise, 5411 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 5411 is only divisible by 1 and 5411, then it is a prime number, and if 5411 is divisible by more than 5411 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 5411 are as follows:
1, 7, 773, 5411
Therefore, since 5411 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 5411 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 5412 prime or composite?
