To determine if 9321 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9321.
If the factors of 9321 are only 9321 and 1, then we know that 9321 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9321 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9321 is only divisible by 1 and 9321, then it is a prime number, and if 9321 is divisible by more than 9321 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9321 are as follows:
