To determine if 4824 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4824.
If the factors of 4824 are only 4824 and 1, then we know that 4824 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4824 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4824 is only divisible by 1 and 4824, then it is a prime number, and if 4824 is divisible by more than 4824 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4824 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 67, 72, 134, 201, 268, 402, 536, 603, 804, 1206, 1608, 2412, 4824
Therefore, since 4824 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4824 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
