To determine if 9276 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9276.
If the factors of 9276 are only 9276 and 1, then we know that 9276 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9276 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9276 is only divisible by 1 and 9276, then it is a prime number, and if 9276 is divisible by more than 9276 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9276 are as follows:
