To determine if 4650 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4650.
If the factors of 4650 are only 4650 and 1, then we know that 4650 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4650 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4650 is only divisible by 1 and 4650, then it is a prime number, and if 4650 is divisible by more than 4650 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4650 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 25, 30, 31, 50, 62, 75, 93, 150, 155, 186, 310, 465, 775, 930, 1550, 2325, 4650
Therefore, since 4650 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4650 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 4651 prime or composite?
