To determine if 7535 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7535.
If the factors of 7535 are only 7535 and 1, then we know that 7535 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7535 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7535 is only divisible by 1 and 7535, then it is a prime number, and if 7535 is divisible by more than 7535 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7535 are as follows:
1, 5, 11, 55, 137, 685, 1507, 7535
