Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 55/627 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 55 and 627.
To find the greatest common divisor of 55 and 627, 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 627 (1, 3, 11, 19, 33, 57, 209, 627) we found that 11 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 11 is the largest common factor of 55 and 627, 11 is also the greatest common divisor of 55 and 627.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 55/627 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 55/11 = 5
Denominator: 627/11 = 57
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
55/627 to the simplest form is:
5/57
