To determine if 9051 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9051.
If the factors of 9051 are only 9051 and 1, then we know that 9051 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9051 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9051 is only divisible by 1 and 9051, then it is a prime number, and if 9051 is divisible by more than 9051 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9051 are as follows:
1, 3, 7, 21, 431, 1293, 3017, 9051
Therefore, since 9051 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 9051 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
