To determine if 5665 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 5665.
If the factors of 5665 are only 5665 and 1, then we know that 5665 is a prime number. Otherwise, 5665 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 5665 is only divisible by 1 and 5665, then it is a prime number, and if 5665 is divisible by more than 5665 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 5665 are as follows:
1, 5, 11, 55, 103, 515, 1133, 5665
