To determine if 4322 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4322.
If the factors of 4322 are only 4322 and 1, then we know that 4322 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4322 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4322 is only divisible by 1 and 4322, then it is a prime number, and if 4322 is divisible by more than 4322 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4322 are as follows:
