To determine if 4528 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4528.
If the factors of 4528 are only 4528 and 1, then we know that 4528 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4528 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4528 is only divisible by 1 and 4528, then it is a prime number, and if 4528 is divisible by more than 4528 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4528 are as follows:
