-- If the GCF of both numbers is 871, then they're both multiples of 871.

-- If they're both even, then they must both be even multiples of 871.

-- They can't be the 2nd and 4th multiples of 871, because then the
bigger one would be divisible by the smaller one.

-- So the smallest they could be is the 4th and 6th multiples of 871 ...

         <em>3,484</em>    and    <em>5,226</em> .

Weird problem !

52/7=7 octaves and 3 extra kets
