Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 54/226 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 54 and 226.
To find the greatest common divisor of 54 and 226, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 54 (1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54) and 226 (1, 2, 113, 226) we found that 2 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 2 is the largest common factor of 54 and 226, 2 is also the greatest common divisor of 54 and 226.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 54/226 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 54/2 = 27
Denominator: 226/2 = 113
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
54/226 to the simplest form is:
27/113
