To determine if 6035 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6035.
If the factors of 6035 are only 6035 and 1, then we know that 6035 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6035 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6035 is only divisible by 1 and 6035, then it is a prime number, and if 6035 is divisible by more than 6035 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6035 are as follows:
1, 5, 17, 71, 85, 355, 1207, 6035
Therefore, since 6035 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 6035 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
