can GCD actually be 1?mals24 wrote:IMO C
St 1 m is prime.
m =3 n = 4 GCD = 1
m = 2 n = 4 GCD = 2
So since we don't have information about n---INSUFF
St 2 2n = 7m
m = 4, n = 14 GCD = 2
m = 2, n = 7 GCD = 1
Combining 1&2
m is prime.
The only prime number that will satisfy St 2 is 2
So m=2, n=7 GCD =1

Yes like scoobydooby said, GCD of all prime numbers is 1.can GCD actually be 1?

2 = 2*1
7 = 7*1
The highest common factor of 2 and 7 is 1.
