R0062-31769 · q-20261013-advance-20261018-r03-gcd-coprime-0069

Original question and givens

a=18, b=37 are natural numbers, including 0; gcd(0,0)=0. Give (a, b, gcd, gcd=1?). Coprime does not mean that both inputs are prime.

  • G001 — a=18, b=37 are natural numbers, including 0; gcd(0,0)=0. Give (a, b, gcd, gcd=1?). Coprime does not mean that both inputs are prime.

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

S001 · implies

Before

source roles = [qf-ext18-gcd-coprime-classification, Nat_gcd, gcd-coprime-classification, no-form-field]

After

derived = [[a, b, gcd, gcd_equals1]]

Conditions: none

Check THIS bank interface:BASE equations use form/domain;BASE events/complement have no operation;factorials have no domain.ext18 uses local hyphens,other legacy operations underscores.Do not force every answer into a tuple or fraction.
