  1. (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, therefore, 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, therefore, 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, therefore, 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, therefore, 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, therefore, 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, therefore, they are co-prime numbers.
