Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 37/185 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 37 and 185.
To find the greatest common divisor of 37 and 185, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 37 (1, 37) and 185 (1, 5, 37, 185) we found that 37 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 37 is the largest common factor of 37 and 185, 37 is also the greatest common divisor of 37 and 185.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 37/185 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 37/37 = 1
Denominator: 185/37 = 5
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
