Prime numbers have only two factors, one and itself. The number 315 is a compositenumber because it has more factors than 1 and itself. You can find the factors of a number by starting with 1 and going on through the numbers until all the facors of a number are found. Like this:
1 X 315
2 will not divide evenly into 315, so is not a factor. No even numbers are factors of 315.
3 X 105
5 X 63
7 X 45
9 X 35
15 X 21
Listed in order, the factors of 315 are 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 15, 21, 35, 45, 63, 105, 315.
Both are composite.

No, 315 is not a prime number. It is called a composite number. A prime number is a number that is only divisible by one and itself. For example, the number 11 is a prime number since only 11 and 1 go into 11 evenly. 315 is divisible by other numbers (ex: it is divisible by 5)
As a product of its prime factors: 3*3*5*7 = 315
It is not a prime number, it is a composite number.
