To determine if 6335 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6335.
If the factors of 6335 are only 6335 and 1, then we know that 6335 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6335 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6335 is only divisible by 1 and 6335, then it is a prime number, and if 6335 is divisible by more than 6335 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6335 are as follows:
1, 5, 7, 35, 181, 905, 1267, 6335
Therefore, since 6335 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
