Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 55/924 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 55 and 924.
To find the greatest common divisor of 55 and 924, 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 924 (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 11, 12, 14, 21, 22, 28, 33, 42, 44, 66, 77, 84, 132, 154, 231, 308, 462, 924) we found that 11 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 11 is the largest common factor of 55 and 924, 11 is also the greatest common divisor of 55 and 924.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 55/924 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 55/11 = 5
Denominator: 924/11 = 84
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
55/924 to the simplest form is:
5/84
