To determine if 4825 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4825.
If the factors of 4825 are only 4825 and 1, then we know that 4825 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4825 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4825 is only divisible by 1 and 4825, then it is a prime number, and if 4825 is divisible by more than 4825 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4825 are as follows:
