Maximize size of Subset from Matrix values such that any pair is coprime – GeeksforGeeks
Given two integers N and M which denotes a matrix of size N*M that has the value of each cell as the sum of its row number and column number, the task is to find the maximum size of a subset that can be formed using the elements of this matrix such that any pair of the subset will be coprime to each other.
Examples:
Input: N = 3, M = 4
Output: 4
Explanation: There are a maximum of 4 possible numbers on the matrix, Which are: {2, 5, 7, 3}, This makes pairs with the combination itself and has the GCD of that pair equal to one. i, e. (2, 3), (2, 5), (5, 3) . . . The matrix is shown belowInput: N = 5, M = 8
Output: 6
Approach: The problem can be solved based on the following observation
As any pair of the subset will be coprime to each other, therefore the subset will be formed using all the prime within the range [2, N+M].
Follow the steps mentioned below to implement the idea:
- Create a function to check if a number is prime or not.
- Run a loop from i = 2 to N+M.
- Check whether the current number is prime or not.
- If yes then increment the counter variable.
- Check whether the current number is prime or not.
- Last, return the count of primes as the answer.
Below is the Implementation of the above approach.

Time Complexity: O((N+M) * sqrt(N+M))
Auxiliary Space: O(1)
