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