To determine if 4533 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4533.
If the factors of 4533 are only 4533 and 1, then we know that 4533 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4533 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4533 is only divisible by 1 and 4533, then it is a prime number, and if 4533 is divisible by more than 4533 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4533 are as follows:
