Important Points About Co-Prime Numbers
Only pairs of numbers can be co-prime.
Two co-prime numbers do not need to be prime.
Example: (8, 15) are co-prime even though both are composite.
Two consecutive numbers are always co-prime.
Example: (10,11), (99,100)
A prime number is co-prime with all numbers that are not multiples of it.
A number is always co-prime with 1.
Even two large numbers can be co-prime if they share no common factor.
