To determine if 9451 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9451.
If the factors of 9451 are only 9451 and 1, then we know that 9451 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9451 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9451 is only divisible by 1 and 9451, then it is a prime number, and if 9451 is divisible by more than 9451 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9451 are as follows:
