To determine if 9080 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9080.
If the factors of 9080 are only 9080 and 1, then we know that 9080 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9080 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9080 is only divisible by 1 and 9080, then it is a prime number, and if 9080 is divisible by more than 9080 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9080 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40, 227, 454, 908, 1135, 1816, 2270, 4540, 9080
Therefore, since 9080 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 9080 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 9081 prime or composite?
