Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 3/780 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 3 and 780.
To find the greatest common divisor of 3 and 780, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 3 (1, 3) and 780 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 13, 15, 20, 26, 30, 39, 52, 60, 65, 78, 130, 156, 195, 260, 390, 780) we found that 3 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 3 is the largest common factor of 3 and 780, 3 is also the greatest common divisor of 3 and 780.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 3/780 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 3/3 = 1
Denominator: 780/3 = 260
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
3/780 to the simplest form is:
1/260
