Meena has two positive integers M and N. Now Meena wants to perform some number of operations (possibly zero) on them. In each operation, Meena can choose either M or N and increment it by 1. Find the minimum number of operations Meena needs to perform so that there is a positive integer strictly greater than 1 which divides both M and N (In other words, the greatest common divisor of M and N shou
