To determine if 8045 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 8045.
If the factors of 8045 are only 8045 and 1, then we know that 8045 is a prime number. Otherwise, 8045 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 8045 is only divisible by 1 and 8045, then it is a prime number, and if 8045 is divisible by more than 8045 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 8045 are as follows:
