To determine if 925 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 925.
If the factors of 925 are only 925 and 1, then we know that 925 is a prime number. Otherwise, 925 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 925 is only divisible by 1 and 925, then it is a prime number, and if 925 is divisible by more than 925 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 925 are as follows:
1, 5, 25, 37, 185, 925
Therefore, since 925 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 925 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 926 prime or composite?
