To determine if 4774 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4774.
If the factors of 4774 are only 4774 and 1, then we know that 4774 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4774 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4774 is only divisible by 1 and 4774, then it is a prime number, and if 4774 is divisible by more than 4774 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4774 are as follows:
1, 2, 7, 11, 14, 22, 31, 62, 77, 154, 217, 341, 434, 682, 2387, 4774
Therefore, since 4774 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4774 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
