To determine if 4932 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4932.
If the factors of 4932 are only 4932 and 1, then we know that 4932 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4932 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4932 is only divisible by 1 and 4932, then it is a prime number, and if 4932 is divisible by more than 4932 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4932 are as follows:
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36, 137, 274, 411, 548, 822, 1233, 1644, 2466, 4932
Therefore, since 4932 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4932 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
