To determine if 4315 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4315.
If the factors of 4315 are only 4315 and 1, then we know that 4315 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4315 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4315 is only divisible by 1 and 4315, then it is a prime number, and if 4315 is divisible by more than 4315 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4315 are as follows:
1, 5, 863, 4315
Therefore, since 4315 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4315 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
