To determine if 4034 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4034.
If the factors of 4034 are only 4034 and 1, then we know that 4034 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4034 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4034 is only divisible by 1 and 4034, then it is a prime number, and if 4034 is divisible by more than 4034 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4034 are as follows:
1, 2, 2017, 4034
Therefore, since 4034 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4034 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
