To determine if 9054 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9054.
If the factors of 9054 are only 9054 and 1, then we know that 9054 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9054 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9054 is only divisible by 1 and 9054, then it is a prime number, and if 9054 is divisible by more than 9054 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9054 are as follows:
