Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 39/960 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 39 and 960.
To find the greatest common divisor of 39 and 960, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 39 (1, 3, 13, 39) and 960 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 32, 40, 48, 60, 64, 80, 96, 120, 160, 192, 240, 320, 480, 960) we found that 3 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 3 is the largest common factor of 39 and 960, 3 is also the greatest common divisor of 39 and 960.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 39/960 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 39/3 = 13
Denominator: 960/3 = 320
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
39/960 to the simplest form is:
13/320
