To determine if 4853 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4853.
If the factors of 4853 are only 4853 and 1, then we know that 4853 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4853 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4853 is only divisible by 1 and 4853, then it is a prime number, and if 4853 is divisible by more than 4853 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4853 are as follows:
