To determine if 4406 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4406.
If the factors of 4406 are only 4406 and 1, then we know that 4406 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4406 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4406 is only divisible by 1 and 4406, then it is a prime number, and if 4406 is divisible by more than 4406 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4406 are as follows:
