Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 5/690 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 5 and 690.
To find the greatest common divisor of 5 and 690, 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 690 (1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 23, 30, 46, 69, 115, 138, 230, 345, 690) we found that 5 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 5 is the largest common factor of 5 and 690, 5 is also the greatest common divisor of 5 and 690.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 5/690 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 5/5 = 1
Denominator: 690/5 = 138
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
5/690 to the simplest form is:
1/138
