Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 4/260 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 4 and 260.
To find the greatest common divisor of 4 and 260, 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 260 (1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 13, 20, 26, 52, 65, 130, 260) we found that 4 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 4 is the largest common factor of 4 and 260, 4 is also the greatest common divisor of 4 and 260.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 4/260 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 4/4 = 1
Denominator: 260/4 = 65
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
4/260 to the simplest form is:
1/65
