Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 35/490 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 35 and 490.
To find the greatest common divisor of 35 and 490, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 35 (1, 5, 7, 35) and 490 (1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 14, 35, 49, 70, 98, 245, 490) we found that 35 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 35 is the largest common factor of 35 and 490, 35 is also the greatest common divisor of 35 and 490.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 35/490 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 35/35 = 1
Denominator: 490/35 = 14
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
35/490 to the simplest form is:
1/14
