Let Fm and Fn two Fermat numbers, and assume m<n.Let d a positivePlanetmathPlanetmath common divisorMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath of Fn and Fm, that is

dFm,dFn.

If dFm then dF1F2Fn-1since some factor must be Fm itself.But Fn-F1F2Fn-1=2 and so d2.Since d is odd, we must have d=1.

Therefore, the greatest common divisorMathworldPlanetmath of any two Fermat numbers must be 1.
