To determine if 4914 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4914.
If the factors of 4914 are only 4914 and 1, then we know that 4914 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4914 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4914 is only divisible by 1 and 4914, then it is a prime number, and if 4914 is divisible by more than 4914 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4914 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 9, 13, 14, 18, 21, 26, 27, 39, 42, 54, 63, 78, 91, 117, 126, 182, 189, 234, 273, 351, 378, 546, 702, 819, 1638, 2457, 4914
