To determine if 4307 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4307.
If the factors of 4307 are only 4307 and 1, then we know that 4307 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4307 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4307 is only divisible by 1 and 4307, then it is a prime number, and if 4307 is divisible by more than 4307 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4307 are as follows:
