Answer:

When you say that two numbers are relatively prime, it means that both numbers do not have a common factor except 1. Stephen is incorrect because 38 and 40 are both multiples of 2.

Answer:

Prime numbers are number that has its factors to be 1 and itself

38 and 40 are not prime because they have more than one factor

38 = { 1 , 2 , 19 , 38} and

40 = { 1 , 2 , 4 , 5 , 8 , 10 , 20 , 40 }

This make his statement incorrect.

Hope this helps.
