To determine if 6225 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6225.
If the factors of 6225 are only 6225 and 1, then we know that 6225 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6225 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6225 is only divisible by 1 and 6225, then it is a prime number, and if 6225 is divisible by more than 6225 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6225 are as follows:
1, 3, 5, 15, 25, 75, 83, 249, 415, 1245, 2075, 6225
Therefore, since 6225 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 6225 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
