To determine if 4674 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4674.
If the factors of 4674 are only 4674 and 1, then we know that 4674 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4674 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4674 is only divisible by 1 and 4674, then it is a prime number, and if 4674 is divisible by more than 4674 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4674 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 6, 19, 38, 41, 57, 82, 114, 123, 246, 779, 1558, 2337, 4674
Therefore, since 4674 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4674 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 4675 prime or composite?
