To determine if 6665 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 6665.
If the factors of 6665 are only 6665 and 1, then we know that 6665 is a prime number. Otherwise, 6665 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 6665 is only divisible by 1 and 6665, then it is a prime number, and if 6665 is divisible by more than 6665 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 6665 are as follows:
1, 5, 31, 43, 155, 215, 1333, 6665
