To determine if 4770 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4770.
If the factors of 4770 are only 4770 and 1, then we know that 4770 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4770 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4770 is only divisible by 1 and 4770, then it is a prime number, and if 4770 is divisible by more than 4770 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4770 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 30, 45, 53, 90, 106, 159, 265, 318, 477, 530, 795, 954, 1590, 2385, 4770
Therefore, since 4770 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4770 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
