Answer 1

You can try

checkbox_elem = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[contains(@value, '4845') or contains(@id, '4845')]")
if not checkbox_elem.is_selected():
    checkbox_elem.click()

Answer 2

To click() on the checkbox that contains 4845 in the Value you can use either of the following locator strategies:

• Using css_selector:

  driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, "tr[id^='tr'][id$='4845'] td > input[value*='4845']").click()
  

• Using xpath:

  driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//tr[starts-with(@id, 'tr') and contains(@id, '4845')]//td/input[contains(@value, '4845')]").click()
