To determine if 9220 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9220.
If the factors of 9220 are only 9220 and 1, then we know that 9220 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9220 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9220 is only divisible by 1 and 9220, then it is a prime number, and if 9220 is divisible by more than 9220 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9220 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 461, 922, 1844, 2305, 4610, 9220
Therefore, since 9220 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 9220 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 9221 prime or composite?
