To determine if 4103 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4103.
If the factors of 4103 are only 4103 and 1, then we know that 4103 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4103 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4103 is only divisible by 1 and 4103, then it is a prime number, and if 4103 is divisible by more than 4103 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4103 are as follows:
1, 11, 373, 4103
Therefore, since 4103 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4103 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
