To determine if 2433 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 2433.
If the factors of 2433 are only 2433 and 1, then we know that 2433 is a prime number. Otherwise, 2433 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 2433 is only divisible by 1 and 2433, then it is a prime number, and if 2433 is divisible by more than 2433 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 2433 are as follows:
