(b) 15 and 37
(c) 30 and 415
(d) 17 and 68 
(e) 216 and 215 
(f) 81 and 16

Answer:
(a) Factors of 18 = 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18
Factors of 35 = 1, 5, 7, 35
Common factor = 1
Since, both have only one common factor, i.e., 1, ∴ they are co-prime numbers.

(b) Factors of 15 = 1, 3, 5, 15
Factors of 37 = 1, 37
Common factor = 1
Since, both have only one common factor, i.e., 1, ∴ they are co-prime numbers.

(c) Factors of 30 = 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 15, 30
Factors of 415 = 1, 5, ........, 83, 415
Common factor = 1, 5
Since, both have more than one common factor, ∴ they are not co-prime numbers.

(d) Factors of 17 = 1, 17
Factors of 68 = 1, 2, 4, 17, 34, 86
Common factor = 1, 17
Since, both have more than one common factor, ∴ they are not co-prime numbers.

(e) Factors of 216 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 36, 72, 108, 216
Factors of 215 = 1, 5, 43, 215
Common factor = 1
Since, both have only one common factor, i.e., 1, ∴ they are co-prime numbers.

(f) Factors of 81 = 1, 3, 9, 27, 81
Factors of 16 = 1, 2, 4, 8, 16
Common factor = 1
Since, both have only one common factor, i.e., 1, ∴ they are co-prime numbers.


Q6: A number is divisible by both 5 and 12. By which other number will that number be always divisible?

Answer: 5 × 12 = 60. The number will be divisible by 60.


Q7: A number is divisible by 12. By what other numbers will that number be divisible?

Answer: Factors of 12 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 12.
∴ The number is also divisible by 1, 2, 3 4 and 6.
