What are the two numbers which have 1 as common factor know as?
Any two numbers whose only common factor is 1 are known as coprime. For example, 9 is coprime to 16.
What is a co-prime number?
There is no such thing as a coprime number.Two integers are said to be relatively prime (or coprime) if they have no common positive factor, other than 1. Examples:Any two different prime numbers are coprime.16 and 27 are coprime.14 and 18 are not coprime. They have the common factor 2.
What are the co prime no?
A set of numbers is coprime if their highest common factor is 1: that is, they have no larger factor in common. The numbers, themselves, need not be prime.For example 8 (=2*2*2) and 15 (=3*5) are coprime.
What are a pair of numbers with a gfc of nine?
Pick any two numbers, x and y that are coprime. That is, they have no factor in common. Then GCF of 9x and 9y will be 9. Pick any two numbers, x and y that are coprime.

What is the least common multiple of 2 coprime numbers?
The least common multiple of two numbers is the product of those two numbers divided by their greatest common factor. It the two numbers are coprime (or relatively prime), their greatest common factor is 1. Therefore, their least common multiple is a x b ÷ GCF (of a and b) = a x b ÷ 1 = a x b. The least common multiple of two coprime numbers is the numbers multiplied together.
