What does relatively prime mean in math?

When two numbers have no common factors other than 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

In other words there is no value that you could divide them both by exactly (without any remainder).

21 and 22 are relatively prime:

• The factors of 21 are 1, 3, 7 and 21

• The factors of 22 are 1, 2, 11 and 22

(the only common factor is 1)

But 21 and 24 are NOT relatively prime:

• The factors of 21 are 1, 3, 7 and 21

• The factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24

(the common factors are 1 AND 3)

Relatively Prime is also called "coprime" or "mutually prime".

Here we see that 12 and 16 are NOT relatively prime

here the number -5 is all of the following except a rational number.
