To determine if 4314 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4314.
If the factors of 4314 are only 4314 and 1, then we know that 4314 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4314 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4314 is only divisible by 1 and 4314, then it is a prime number, and if 4314 is divisible by more than 4314 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4314 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 6, 719, 1438, 2157, 4314
