Consider the provided numbers.

Co-prime numbers: Two numbers are said to be co-prime if they have no common factor other than 1.

Prime numbers have two factors which are itself and one.

The first 25 prime numbers are: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89 and 97.

The provided numbers are 59 and 97.

Both the numbers are prime that means the factors of 59 are 1 and 59. Similar the factors of 97 are 1 and 97.

So, the only common factor of the pair 59 and 97 is 1.

Hence, number 59 and 97 are co-prime.
