Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 5/415 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 5 and 415.
To find the greatest common divisor of 5 and 415, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 5 (1, 5) and 415 (1, 5, 83, 415) we found that 5 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 5 is the largest common factor of 5 and 415, 5 is also the greatest common divisor of 5 and 415.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 5/415 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 5/5 = 1
Denominator: 415/5 = 83
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
5/415 to the simplest form is:
1/83
