To determine if 5675 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 5675.
If the factors of 5675 are only 5675 and 1, then we know that 5675 is a prime number. Otherwise, 5675 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 5675 is only divisible by 1 and 5675, then it is a prime number, and if 5675 is divisible by more than 5675 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 5675 are as follows:
