To determine if 6475 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6475.
If the factors of 6475 are only 6475 and 1, then we know that 6475 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6475 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6475 is only divisible by 1 and 6475, then it is a prime number, and if 6475 is divisible by more than 6475 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6475 are as follows:
1, 5, 7, 25, 35, 37, 175, 185, 259, 925, 1295, 6475
Therefore, since 6475 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 6475 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
