To determine if 9525 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9525.
If the factors of 9525 are only 9525 and 1, then we know that 9525 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9525 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9525 is only divisible by 1 and 9525, then it is a prime number, and if 9525 is divisible by more than 9525 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9525 are as follows:
