Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 58/784 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 58 and 784.
To find the greatest common divisor of 58 and 784, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 58 (1, 2, 29, 58) and 784 (1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 16, 28, 49, 56, 98, 112, 196, 392, 784) we found that 2 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 2 is the largest common factor of 58 and 784, 2 is also the greatest common divisor of 58 and 784.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 58/784 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 58/2 = 29
Denominator: 784/2 = 392
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
58/784 to the simplest form is:
29/392
