I think question is incomplete
If u r question is this
Which of the following pairs of numbers is co – prime ?
A.(17,15)
B.(10,16)
C.(20,24)
D.(31,64) then
Answer is
17 and 35 have prime factors 1 , 17 and 1 , 5 , 7 respectively . Thus there is no other common factor other than 1 .
Therefore they are co – primes .
(10,16) , (20,24) , (31,64) each have common primes factors other than 1 thus these are not co – primes.
Note-
In these questions remember to only look for prime factors while finding factors of each number . The concept of co – primes must be properly understood to solve such types of questions
