Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 12/418 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 12 and 418.
To find the greatest common divisor of 12 and 418, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 12 (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12) and 418 (1, 2, 11, 19, 22, 38, 209, 418) we found that 2 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 2 is the largest common factor of 12 and 418, 2 is also the greatest common divisor of 12 and 418.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 12/418 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 12/2 = 6
Denominator: 418/2 = 209
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
12/418 to the simplest form is:
6/209
