Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 45/565 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 45 and 565.
To find the greatest common divisor of 45 and 565, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 45 (1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 45) and 565 (1, 5, 113, 565) we found that 5 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 5 is the largest common factor of 45 and 565, 5 is also the greatest common divisor of 45 and 565.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 45/565 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 45/5 = 9
Denominator: 565/5 = 113
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
45/565 to the simplest form is:
9/113
