Is the number equal to \( n \) prime or composite?

Any number ending in 5 is automatically divisible by 5! Since they have 5 as a factor (plus 1 and themselves), they have more than two factors, making them composite, not prime.
Great question! is typically read as just 5, which is indeed prime. In this context, we interpret it as the single-digit prime 5, making 0 the correct answer for the blank.
Start with the divisibility rules:
No! The number 5 itself is the only prime number that ends in 5. Every other number ending in 5 has 5 as a factor, automatically making it composite.
The challenge is recognizing that most options create composite numbers. You need to understand that numbers ending in 5 follow a specific pattern - only 5 itself can be prime.
