To determine if 4690 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4690.
If the factors of 4690 are only 4690 and 1, then we know that 4690 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4690 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4690 is only divisible by 1 and 4690, then it is a prime number, and if 4690 is divisible by more than 4690 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4690 are as follows:
1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 14, 35, 67, 70, 134, 335, 469, 670, 938, 2345, 4690
Therefore, since 4690 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4690 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 4691 prime or composite?
