To determine if 5668 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 5668.
If the factors of 5668 are only 5668 and 1, then we know that 5668 is a prime number. Otherwise, 5668 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 5668 is only divisible by 1 and 5668, then it is a prime number, and if 5668 is divisible by more than 5668 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 5668 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 13, 26, 52, 109, 218, 436, 1417, 2834, 5668
Therefore, since 5668 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 5668 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
