To find the greatest common factor of 32 & 90
Answer to Problem 7CT
Greatest Common Factor is 2. Hence not relatively prime.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Numbers 32 & 90
Formula Used: Factorization
Calculation:
Here, break both the numbers into its factors respectively.
So, 32 may be written as
And 90 may be written as
As can be seen 2 is common in both the numbers. Hence , the greatest common factor is 2.
When the greatest common factor of two numbers is 1- they are said to be relatively prime.
Since their GCF is not 1, 32 & 90 are not relatively prime numbers.
Conclusion-
Greatest Common Factor is 2. Hence not relatively prime.
