To determine if 7805 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 7805.
If the factors of 7805 are only 7805 and 1, then we know that 7805 is a prime number. Otherwise, 7805 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 7805 is only divisible by 1 and 7805, then it is a prime number, and if 7805 is divisible by more than 7805 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 7805 are as follows:
