Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 34/340 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 34 and 340.
To find the greatest common divisor of 34 and 340, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 34 (1, 2, 17, 34) and 340 (1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 17, 20, 34, 68, 85, 170, 340) we found that 34 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 34 is the largest common factor of 34 and 340, 34 is also the greatest common divisor of 34 and 340.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 34/340 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 34/34 = 1
Denominator: 340/34 = 10
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
34/340 to the simplest form is:
1/10
