To determine if 4784 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4784.
If the factors of 4784 are only 4784 and 1, then we know that 4784 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4784 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4784 is only divisible by 1 and 4784, then it is a prime number, and if 4784 is divisible by more than 4784 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4784 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 8, 13, 16, 23, 26, 46, 52, 92, 104, 184, 208, 299, 368, 598, 1196, 2392, 4784
Therefore, since 4784 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4784 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
