To determine if 9308 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9308.
If the factors of 9308 are only 9308 and 1, then we know that 9308 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9308 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9308 is only divisible by 1 and 9308, then it is a prime number, and if 9308 is divisible by more than 9308 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9308 are as follows:
