Aug 9, 2010 at 6:21 comment added Gerhard Paseman Fix a finite set S of primes. I would guess that the density of numbers whose prime factors come only from S gets pretty small, so that (in a handwaving sense) picking numbers which "avoid S" is the same as picking squarefree numbers which are coprime to the product of elements of S. So I can see (or hallucinate, if not communicate) a strong connection between chance of coprimality and chance of finite sets of primes intersecting. Perhaps someone will come along to say clearly what I mean for both of us. Gerhard "Ask Me About System Design" Paseman, 2010.08.08
