To determine if 5764 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 5764.
If the factors of 5764 are only 5764 and 1, then we know that 5764 is a prime number. Otherwise, 5764 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 5764 is only divisible by 1 and 5764, then it is a prime number, and if 5764 is divisible by more than 5764 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 5764 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 11, 22, 44, 131, 262, 524, 1441, 2882, 5764
Therefore, since 5764 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 5764 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 5765 prime or composite?
