To determine if 4405 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4405.
If the factors of 4405 are only 4405 and 1, then we know that 4405 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4405 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4405 is only divisible by 1 and 4405, then it is a prime number, and if 4405 is divisible by more than 4405 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4405 are as follows:
