Is 25 a prime or composite number?
Answer
Number 25 is not a Prime
25 = 5²
25 has 3 divisors — 1, 5 and 25; a prime has exactly two: 1 and itself. It is a perfect square.
Primes up to √25
5² = 25 ≤ 25 < 36 = 6², so it is enough to try primes up to 5
- ÷2 does not divide
- ÷3 does not divide
- ÷5 divides
25 ÷ 5 = 5 — 5 divides 25, so 25 is composite
Nearest primes: 23 and 29
