To determine if 9770 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 9770.
If the factors of 9770 are only 9770 and 1, then we know that 9770 is a prime number. Otherwise, 9770 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 9770 is only divisible by 1 and 9770, then it is a prime number, and if 9770 is divisible by more than 9770 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 9770 are as follows:
