To determine if 4052 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4052.
If the factors of 4052 are only 4052 and 1, then we know that 4052 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4052 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4052 is only divisible by 1 and 4052, then it is a prime number, and if 4052 is divisible by more than 4052 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4052 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 1013, 2026, 4052
Therefore, since 4052 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4052 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 4053 prime or composite?
