3235 is composite. You can easily tell because it ends in a 5, which means it is divisible by 5.
3235/5=647


A number is always composite if it ends in a 5 or a 0 (with the exception of 5 itself) because either of those means that it is divisible by 5.
Any number that has 5 or 0 in its one's place is divisible by 5, so 3235 is divisible by 5.

Since it has another factor in addition to '1' and itself, it's a composite number.

Answer:

3235 is not a Prime number. It is a composite number.

Definition:

A prime number has exactly two factors: 1 (also known as unity) and itself. A composite number has more than two factors; in other words, it has at least one factor besides 1 and itself.

Explanation:

Any number ending in 0 or 5 is evenly divisible by 5, so it would have 5 as a factor. Thus, 3235 has 5 as a factor, so it is a composite number.
Yes, 3235 is composite because it has more than 2 factors.

A prime number has only 2 factors which are 1 and itself. Composite numbers are everything else except 1 and 0. 1 and 0 are neither prime, nor composite. 3235 is composite.
