Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 5/575 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 5 and 575.
To find the greatest common divisor of 5 and 575, 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 575 (1, 5, 23, 25, 115, 575) we found that 5 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 5 is the largest common factor of 5 and 575, 5 is also the greatest common divisor of 5 and 575.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 5/575 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 5/5 = 1
Denominator: 575/5 = 115
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
5/575 to the simplest form is:
1/115
