Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 22/236 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 22 and 236.
To find the greatest common divisor of 22 and 236, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 22 (1, 2, 11, 22) and 236 (1, 2, 4, 59, 118, 236) we found that 2 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 2 is the largest common factor of 22 and 236, 2 is also the greatest common divisor of 22 and 236.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 22/236 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 22/2 = 11
Denominator: 236/2 = 118
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
22/236 to the simplest form is:
11/118
