Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 14/270 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 14 and 270.
To find the greatest common divisor of 14 and 270, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 14 (1, 2, 7, 14) and 270 (1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 27, 30, 45, 54, 90, 135, 270) we found that 2 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 2 is the largest common factor of 14 and 270, 2 is also the greatest common divisor of 14 and 270.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 14/270 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 14/2 = 7
Denominator: 270/2 = 135
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
14/270 to the simplest form is:
7/135
