To determine if 4775 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4775.
If the factors of 4775 are only 4775 and 1, then we know that 4775 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4775 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4775 is only divisible by 1 and 4775, then it is a prime number, and if 4775 is divisible by more than 4775 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4775 are as follows:
1, 5, 25, 191, 955, 4775
Therefore, since 4775 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
