243 is a composite number. Its prime factorization is 3*3*3*3*3 or 3^5. Since it can be evenly divided by a factor other than itself and 1, 243 is a composite number.

Before asking whether a number is a Prime number, please first try to divide it by some small prime numbers - for example, by 2, 3, 5, 7.
