To determine if 4794 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4794.
If the factors of 4794 are only 4794 and 1, then we know that 4794 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4794 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4794 is only divisible by 1 and 4794, then it is a prime number, and if 4794 is divisible by more than 4794 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4794 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 6, 17, 34, 47, 51, 94, 102, 141, 282, 799, 1598, 2397, 4794
Therefore, since 4794 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4794 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
