To determine if 4881 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4881.
If the factors of 4881 are only 4881 and 1, then we know that 4881 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4881 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4881 is only divisible by 1 and 4881, then it is a prime number, and if 4881 is divisible by more than 4881 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4881 are as follows:
