Relative prime: two integers are termed relative prime if the only common factor between them is 1.
any integer can be broken down into certain multiples of prime numbers. this is called prime factorization. When you prime factorize two integers and the only common number is 1,then the two integers are relative prime.
for ex.
18 = 2 x 3 x 3
35 = 7 x 5
so 18 and 35 are relative primes.
18 = 2 x 3 x 3
21 = 3 x 7
3 is common, so 18 and 21 are not relative prime.
Two integers are said to be relatively prime, or coprime if they share no common positive factor other than 1. For example, the numbers 6 and 35 are relatively prime because they share no common factors.

Two numbers are relatively prime if they share no common positive factors other than one.
any prime number and many that aren't, like 33
There are quite a few correct answers. 24 is relatively prime with 35, for one.
Relatively prime numbers are numbers which share no common factors. This means the numbers are both the product of an entirely different set of prime numbers. There is no limit to the number of prime numbers. Thus there is no limit to the number of relatively prime pairs. Therefore there cannot be two "largest" relative primes.
A single number cannot be relatively prime. Relative primality is a property of two (or more) numbers which do not have any factor in common - other than 1.
One number, by itself cannot be relatively prime - or otherwise. Relative primality is a property of two (or more) numbers.
