To determine if 695 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 695.
If the factors of 695 are only 695 and 1, then we know that 695 is a prime number. Otherwise, 695 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 695 is only divisible by 1 and 695, then it is a prime number, and if 695 is divisible by more than 695 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 695 are as follows:
1, 5, 139, 695
Therefore, since 695 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 695 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 696 prime or composite?
