To determine if 4368 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4368.
If the factors of 4368 are only 4368 and 1, then we know that 4368 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4368 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4368 is only divisible by 1 and 4368, then it is a prime number, and if 4368 is divisible by more than 4368 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4368 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 12, 13, 14, 16, 21, 24, 26, 28, 39, 42, 48, 52, 56, 78, 84, 91, 104, 112, 156, 168, 182, 208, 273, 312, 336, 364, 546, 624, 728, 1092, 1456, 2184, 4368
Therefore, since 4368 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4368 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
