Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 46/320 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 46 and 320.
To find the greatest common divisor of 46 and 320, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 46 (1, 2, 23, 46) and 320 (1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 32, 40, 64, 80, 160, 320) we found that 2 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 2 is the largest common factor of 46 and 320, 2 is also the greatest common divisor of 46 and 320.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 46/320 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 46/2 = 23
Denominator: 320/2 = 160
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
46/320 to the simplest form is:
23/160
