Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 55/615 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 55 and 615.
To find the greatest common divisor of 55 and 615, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 55 (1, 5, 11, 55) and 615 (1, 3, 5, 15, 41, 123, 205, 615) we found that 5 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 5 is the largest common factor of 55 and 615, 5 is also the greatest common divisor of 55 and 615.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 55/615 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 55/5 = 11
Denominator: 615/5 = 123
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
55/615 to the simplest form is:
11/123
