GCF of 32 and 33

Find the GCF of 32 and 33.

Last one for today.

Factors of 32: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32.

Factors of 33: 1, 3, 11, 33.

I say the GCF is 1.

I saw online that when two numbers have no GCF except for 1 it is called RELATIVELY PRIME. Is this correct?

Thanks....

GCF is 1 tick.

Relatively prime tick apparently. I'd not met this term but Wolfram Alpha agrees so it must be true..

Ok. That works for me. Questions will get increasingly harder as I go through the chapters in.my self-study of algebra 1 and 2 topics.
