Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 24/782 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 24 and 782.
To find the greatest common divisor of 24 and 782, 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 782 (1, 2, 17, 23, 34, 46, 391, 782) we found that 2 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 2 is the largest common factor of 24 and 782, 2 is also the greatest common divisor of 24 and 782.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 24/782 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 24/2 = 12
Denominator: 782/2 = 391
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
24/782 to the simplest form is:
12/391
