To determine if 4323 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4323.
If the factors of 4323 are only 4323 and 1, then we know that 4323 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4323 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4323 is only divisible by 1 and 4323, then it is a prime number, and if 4323 is divisible by more than 4323 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4323 are as follows:
1, 3, 11, 33, 131, 393, 1441, 4323
Therefore, since 4323 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
