To determine if 3933 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 3933.
If the factors of 3933 are only 3933 and 1, then we know that 3933 is a prime number. Otherwise, 3933 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 3933 is only divisible by 1 and 3933, then it is a prime number, and if 3933 is divisible by more than 3933 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 3933 are as follows:
1, 3, 9, 19, 23, 57, 69, 171, 207, 437, 1311, 3933
