To determine if 4670 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4670.
If the factors of 4670 are only 4670 and 1, then we know that 4670 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4670 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4670 is only divisible by 1 and 4670, then it is a prime number, and if 4670 is divisible by more than 4670 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4670 are as follows:
1, 2, 5, 10, 467, 934, 2335, 4670
Therefore, since 4670 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4670 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
