Use the Euclidean algorithm to find the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) of the numbers 1083974892 and 48298209703. Are these numbers relatively prime? Hence or otherwise derive two numbers with at least 10 digits each that have GCD=41. Hint — use fprintf() to print large numbers in MATLAB without exp notation
