Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 36/898 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 36 and 898.
To find the greatest common divisor of 36 and 898, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 36 (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36) and 898 (1, 2, 449, 898) we found that 2 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 2 is the largest common factor of 36 and 898, 2 is also the greatest common divisor of 36 and 898.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 36/898 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 36/2 = 18
Denominator: 898/2 = 449
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
36/898 to the simplest form is:
