To determine if 4104 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4104.
If the factors of 4104 are only 4104 and 1, then we know that 4104 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4104 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4104 is only divisible by 1 and 4104, then it is a prime number, and if 4104 is divisible by more than 4104 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4104 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 19, 24, 27, 36, 38, 54, 57, 72, 76, 108, 114, 152, 171, 216, 228, 342, 456, 513, 684, 1026, 1368, 2052, 4104
Therefore, since 4104 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4104 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
