Counting numbers have fascinated human mind from time immemorial. The first set he seems to have pondered about is the set of natural numbers, N Various subsets of this set were diffined. Note worthy among them are
Prime Number :- if a natural number has exactly tow divisors it is called a prime number. Yet another way Simple examples are `2,3,5,7,...........`
`{2,3}` in the only set of consective primes.
Composite numbers :- A natural number habing more than 2 divisors is called a composite number. Simple examples are `4,6,8,9,10,..........`
Note that 1 is neither prime nor composite.
Coprime or relatively prime numbers :- A pair of natural numbers is acalled a set of coprime numbers if their highest common factor (HCF) or greatest common divisor (g.c.d.) is 1. For example 8 & 5 are co-prime
Note that these two numbers need not be prime.
More over 1 is coprime with evert natural numbers.
a prime number is coprime with all natural numbers which are not it's multiple.
Twin Prime :- A pair of primes is called twin primes if their non-negative difference is '2' For example `{3,5} , {5,7}, (11,13} , .........
Based on above difinitions solve that following problems
