To determine if 4935 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4935.
If the factors of 4935 are only 4935 and 1, then we know that 4935 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4935 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4935 is only divisible by 1 and 4935, then it is a prime number, and if 4935 is divisible by more than 4935 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4935 are as follows:
1, 3, 5, 7, 15, 21, 35, 47, 105, 141, 235, 329, 705, 987, 1645, 4935
Therefore, since 4935 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4935 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
