I need help with this dicrete mathematics proof involving relations

R.3. Consider the relation R = {(m,n):m,n E N & m/n}. Prove that R defines a partial order on
the set of natural numbers. Then show that R does not define a linear ordering on the set of
natural numbers by giving two natural numbers a and b such that a does not divide b and b does
not divide a.
