      Let \(F\) be an algebraic number field of a finite degree, and \(K\) be an extension over \(F\) of a finite degree. It is known that the greatest common divisor of the discriminants of integers of \(K\) with respect to \(K/F\) is not always equal to the discriminant of \(K/F\). In this paper, we assume that \(K/F\) is normal, and give a simple criterion to determine for a prime ideal of \(F\), which is unramified in \(K/F\), to divide the greatest common divisor of the discriminants of integers of \(K\) with respect to \(K/F\). The result is obtained only by an elementary investigation of conjugates of integers.
