To determine if 4795 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4795.
If the factors of 4795 are only 4795 and 1, then we know that 4795 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4795 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4795 is only divisible by 1 and 4795, then it is a prime number, and if 4795 is divisible by more than 4795 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4795 are as follows:
