I know, but to solve it, you have to know the definition of relative prime, What is it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't know, that's why I am asking

OpenStudy (anonymous):

10 and 21 - between them, they have no common prime factors.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm just going out on a limb here, but would it be 10 and 21? I guess that because that is the only pair that does not have any common denominators. The other three pairs are divisible by three while 10 is not, making 10 and 21 the odd pair.
