Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 48/832 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 48 and 832.
To find the greatest common divisor of 48 and 832, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 48 (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48) and 832 (1, 2, 4, 8, 13, 16, 26, 32, 52, 64, 104, 208, 416, 832) we found that 16 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 16 is the largest common factor of 48 and 832, 16 is also the greatest common divisor of 48 and 832.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 48/832 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 48/16 = 3
Denominator: 832/16 = 52
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
48/832 to the simplest form is:
3/52
