To determine if 4454 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4454.
If the factors of 4454 are only 4454 and 1, then we know that 4454 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4454 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4454 is only divisible by 1 and 4454, then it is a prime number, and if 4454 is divisible by more than 4454 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4454 are as follows:
