Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 24/768 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 24 and 768.
To find the greatest common divisor of 24 and 768, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 24 (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24) and 768 (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, 64, 96, 128, 192, 256, 384, 768) we found that 24 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 24 is the largest common factor of 24 and 768, 24 is also the greatest common divisor of 24 and 768.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 24/768 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 24/24 = 1
Denominator: 768/24 = 32
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
24/768 to the simplest form is:
1/32
