Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 4/688 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 4 and 688.
To find the greatest common divisor of 4 and 688, 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 688 (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 43, 86, 172, 344, 688) we found that 4 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 4 is the largest common factor of 4 and 688, 4 is also the greatest common divisor of 4 and 688.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 4/688 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 4/4 = 1
Denominator: 688/4 = 172
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
4/688 to the simplest form is:
1/172
