Method 1:
\List the factors of each number.
\Factors of 28 : 2, 4, 7, 14, 28
\Factors of 84 : 2, 3, 4, 6, 12 , 14, 21, , 7, 14, 28, 42
\Identify the greatest common factor.
\The greatest common factor of 28 and 84 is 28.
\The GCF is 28. So, the numbers are not relatively prime.![\"\"](\"http://www.mathskey.com/userfiles/image/steps_images/step2.JPG\")
Method 2:
\Write the prime factorization of each number.
\28 = 2 × 2 × 7.
\84 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 7.
\The GCF is the product of the common prime factors in each number.
\GCF = 2 × 2 × 7 = 28.
\The greatest common factor of 28 and 84 is 28.
\The GCF is 28. So, the numbers are not relatively prime.![\"\"](\"http://www.mathskey.com/userfiles/image/steps_images/solution.JPG\")
The greatest common factor of 28 and 84 is 28.
\The GCF is 28. So, the numbers are not relatively prime.
