To determine if 5513 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 5513.
If the factors of 5513 are only 5513 and 1, then we know that 5513 is a prime number. Otherwise, 5513 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 5513 is only divisible by 1 and 5513, then it is a prime number, and if 5513 is divisible by more than 5513 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 5513 are as follows:
