To determine if 8365 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 8365.
If the factors of 8365 are only 8365 and 1, then we know that 8365 is a prime number. Otherwise, 8365 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 8365 is only divisible by 1 and 8365, then it is a prime number, and if 8365 is divisible by more than 8365 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 8365 are as follows:
1, 5, 7, 35, 239, 1195, 1673, 8365
