To determine if 4028 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4028.
If the factors of 4028 are only 4028 and 1, then we know that 4028 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4028 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4028 is only divisible by 1 and 4028, then it is a prime number, and if 4028 is divisible by more than 4028 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4028 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 19, 38, 53, 76, 106, 212, 1007, 2014, 4028
Therefore, since 4028 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4028 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
