Are the Two Numbers 0 and 952 Coprime (Relatively Prime, Prime to Each Other)? Check if Their Greatest Common Factor, GCF, Is Equal to 1
Are the numbers 0 and 952 coprime (prime to each other, relatively prime)?
0 and 952 are not relatively prime... if:
If there is at least one number other than 1 that evenly divides the two numbers (without a remainder). Or...
Or, in other words, if their greatest (highest) common factor (divisor), gcf (hcf, gcd), is not equal to 1.
Calculate the greatest (highest) common factor (divisor),
gcf (hcf, gcd), of the two numbers
Zero is divisible by any number other than itself (the remainder is zero when dividing it by those numbers).
The greatest factor of the number 952 is the number itself.
⇒ gcf (hcf, gcd) (0; 952) = 952 ≠ 1
Are the numbers 0 and 952 coprime (prime to each other, relatively prime)? No.

Are the two numbers coprime (relatively prime)?
Two natural numbers are coprime (relatively prime, prime to each other) - if there is no number that is evenly dividing both numbers (= without a remainder), that is, if their greatest (highest) common factor (divisor), gcf, or hcf, or gcd is 1.
Two natural numbers are not relatively prime - if there is at least one number that evenly divides the two numbers, that is, if their greatest common factor, gcf, is not 1.
