To determine if 9594 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9594.
If the factors of 9594 are only 9594 and 1, then we know that 9594 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9594 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9594 is only divisible by 1 and 9594, then it is a prime number, and if 9594 is divisible by more than 9594 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9594 are as follows:
