To determine if 9675 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9675.
If the factors of 9675 are only 9675 and 1, then we know that 9675 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9675 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9675 is only divisible by 1 and 9675, then it is a prime number, and if 9675 is divisible by more than 9675 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9675 are as follows:
1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 25, 43, 45, 75, 129, 215, 225, 387, 645, 1075, 1935, 3225, 9675
Therefore, since 9675 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 9675 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
