Two number are said to be "relatively prime" if they have no common factors - of course, other than the trivial factor 1. Even a Prime number is not "relatively prime" to itself, since the prime number itself is the common factor. For example, the common factor of 7 and 7 is 7. Thus, the only situation I can think of where a number has no common factor with itself is that the number is 1.

Are 12 and 51 relatively prime?
They are not relatively prime. To be relatively prime, the only common factor they could have would be the number 1. Both also have the number 3 as a common factor, so they are not relatively prime.
What is a number that is relatively prime to 50?
An easy way to find a number relatively prime to another number is to find a nearby prime number. For example, 53 is relatively prime with 50. The following pairs are relatively prime. 3, 50 19, 50 37, 50 49, 50 50, 69 50, 201 50, 341 Any number that is not divisible by 2 or 5 will be relatively prime to 50.
What number is relatively prime to 13?
Since 13 is a prime number (i.e., 13 is the only factor of 13), any number that is not a multiple of 13 is relatively prime to it.
How many numbers are relatively prime to 37?
Infinitely many numbers are relatively prime to 37. Because 37 is a prime number, all other numbers are relatively prime to it.
What number is relativly prime to 242?
15 is relatively prime.
