To determine if 4310 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4310.
If the factors of 4310 are only 4310 and 1, then we know that 4310 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4310 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4310 is only divisible by 1 and 4310, then it is a prime number, and if 4310 is divisible by more than 4310 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4310 are as follows:
1, 2, 5, 10, 431, 862, 2155, 4310
Therefore, since 4310 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4310 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
