To determine if 4135 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4135.
If the factors of 4135 are only 4135 and 1, then we know that 4135 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4135 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4135 is only divisible by 1 and 4135, then it is a prime number, and if 4135 is divisible by more than 4135 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4135 are as follows:
1, 5, 827, 4135
Therefore, since 4135 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4135 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
