Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 30/150 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 30 and 150.
To find the greatest common divisor of 30 and 150, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 30 (1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30) and 150 (1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 25, 30, 50, 75, 150) we found that 30 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 30 is the largest common factor of 30 and 150, 30 is also the greatest common divisor of 30 and 150.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 30/150 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 30/30 = 1
Denominator: 150/30 = 5
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
30/150 to the simplest form is:
1/5
