To determine if 9450 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9450.
If the factors of 9450 are only 9450 and 1, then we know that 9450 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9450 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9450 is only divisible by 1 and 9450, then it is a prime number, and if 9450 is divisible by more than 9450 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9450 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 14, 15, 18, 21, 25, 27, 30, 35, 42, 45, 50, 54, 63, 70, 75, 90, 105, 126, 135, 150, 175, 189, 210, 225, 270, 315, 350, 378, 450, 525, 630, 675, 945, 1050, 1350, 1575, 1890, 3150, 4725, 9450
Therefore, since 9450 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 9450 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
