Question

what is the HCF of two coprime numbers?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The HCF of two co prime numbers is always 1

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, 13 and 19 are coprime.

Factors of 13 = 1, 13

Factors of 19 = 1, 19

∴HCF 13,19 = 1

Answer 2

Answer:

$1$

Step-by-step explanation:

• As per the data given in the question, we need to find the HCF of two co primes

• As we know, co primes are the numbers that have no common factors except $1$.

• All prime numbers are co prime to each other because they have only one common factor that is $1$.

For example: $(2,3), (5,7),..$

• All consecutive numbers are co prime to each other because they also have only one common factor that is $1$.

For example: $(4,5), (6,7),..$

Hence, $1$ is the HCF of two co prime numbers.
