To determine if 5765 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 5765.
If the factors of 5765 are only 5765 and 1, then we know that 5765 is a prime number. Otherwise, 5765 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 5765 is only divisible by 1 and 5765, then it is a prime number, and if 5765 is divisible by more than 5765 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 5765 are as follows:
