To determine if 4928 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4928.
If the factors of 4928 are only 4928 and 1, then we know that 4928 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4928 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4928 is only divisible by 1 and 4928, then it is a prime number, and if 4928 is divisible by more than 4928 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4928 are as follows:
