To determine if 4345 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4345.
If the factors of 4345 are only 4345 and 1, then we know that 4345 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4345 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4345 is only divisible by 1 and 4345, then it is a prime number, and if 4345 is divisible by more than 4345 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4345 are as follows:
1, 5, 11, 55, 79, 395, 869, 4345
Therefore, since 4345 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
