To determine if 9505 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9505.
If the factors of 9505 are only 9505 and 1, then we know that 9505 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9505 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9505 is only divisible by 1 and 9505, then it is a prime number, and if 9505 is divisible by more than 9505 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9505 are as follows:
