  1. Let us find HCF of 396 and 231 using Euclid’s division algorithm

    {tex}\begin{array}{l}396=231\times1+165\\231=165\times1+66\\165=66\times2+33\\66=33\times2+0\\So\;HCF(396,231)=33\\\end{array}{/tex}

    So 33 is common factor of 396 and 231

    and co-prime numbers have common factor of 1 only.
    ∴ The 396 and 231 are not co-prime.

  2. Here we have to find out HCF of 2160 and 847 by Using Euclid’s division Lemma, we get
    2160 = 847{tex}\times{/tex}2 + 466
    Also 847 = 466{tex}\times{/tex}1 + 381
    466 = 381{tex}\times{/tex}1 + 85
    381 = 85{tex}\times{/tex}4 + 41
    85 = 41{tex}\times{/tex}2 + 3
    41=3{tex}\times{/tex}13 + 2
    3 = 2{tex}\times{/tex}1 + 1
    2 = 1{tex}\times{/tex}2 + 0
    {tex}\therefore{/tex}HCF = 1.
    Hence the numbers are co-prime.
