Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 30/742 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 30 and 742.
To find the greatest common divisor of 30 and 742, 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 742 (1, 2, 7, 14, 53, 106, 371, 742) we found that 2 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 2 is the largest common factor of 30 and 742, 2 is also the greatest common divisor of 30 and 742.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 30/742 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 30/2 = 15
Denominator: 742/2 = 371
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
30/742 to the simplest form is:
15/371
