numeri primi tra loro
Selected
coprime numbers / relatively prime numbers
here's the definition in English:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coprime
In mathematics, the integers a and b are said to be coprime or relatively prime if they have no common factor other than 1 or, equivalently, if their greatest common divisor is 1.
and here's the corresponding definition in Italian:
http://www.matematicamente.it/formulario_dizionario/dizionar...
Numeri coprimi: due numeri si dicono coprimi se sono primi tra loro, ossia se hanno come divisore comune solo 1

Numbers that don't have any common divisor
For example, 9 can be divided by 1, 3, and 9.
16 can be divided by 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16.
9 and 16 don't have any common divisor.

9 and 16 don't have any common divisor except 1.
The definition of "numeri primi fra loro" is "Sono quei numeri che non hanno nessun divisore comune, a parte 1. Non devono essere necessariamente primi."
