To determine if 9205 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9205.
If the factors of 9205 are only 9205 and 1, then we know that 9205 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9205 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9205 is only divisible by 1 and 9205, then it is a prime number, and if 9205 is divisible by more than 9205 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9205 are as follows:
