To determine if 4050 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4050.
If the factors of 4050 are only 4050 and 1, then we know that 4050 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4050 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4050 is only divisible by 1 and 4050, then it is a prime number, and if 4050 is divisible by more than 4050 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4050 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 25, 27, 30, 45, 50, 54, 75, 81, 90, 135, 150, 162, 225, 270, 405, 450, 675, 810, 1350, 2025, 4050
Therefore, since 4050 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4050 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 4051 prime or composite?
