Original question and givens

Positive integers m=2, n=3 must satisfy gcd(m,n)=1. Enumerate each complete 1-through-modulus representative range. Give (m,n,phi_m,phi_n,phi_mn,product,equal?,instance_only_with_coprimality).

  • G001 — Positive integers m=2, n=3 must satisfy gcd(m,n)=1. Enumerate each complete 1-through-modulus representative range. Give (m,n,phi_m,phi_n,phi_mn,product,equal?,instance_only_with_coprimality).

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.
