To determine if 4675 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4675.
If the factors of 4675 are only 4675 and 1, then we know that 4675 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4675 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4675 is only divisible by 1 and 4675, then it is a prime number, and if 4675 is divisible by more than 4675 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4675 are as follows:
1, 5, 11, 17, 25, 55, 85, 187, 275, 425, 935, 4675
Therefore, since 4675 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4675 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
