To determine if 4911 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4911.
If the factors of 4911 are only 4911 and 1, then we know that 4911 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4911 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4911 is only divisible by 1 and 4911, then it is a prime number, and if 4911 is divisible by more than 4911 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4911 are as follows:
