To determine if 4808 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4808.
If the factors of 4808 are only 4808 and 1, then we know that 4808 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4808 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4808 is only divisible by 1 and 4808, then it is a prime number, and if 4808 is divisible by more than 4808 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4808 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 8, 601, 1202, 2404, 4808
