Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 6/440 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 6 and 440.
To find the greatest common divisor of 6 and 440, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 6 (1, 2, 3, 6) and 440 (1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 11, 20, 22, 40, 44, 55, 88, 110, 220, 440) we found that 2 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 2 is the largest common factor of 6 and 440, 2 is also the greatest common divisor of 6 and 440.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 6/440 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 6/2 = 3
Denominator: 440/2 = 220
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
6/440 to the simplest form is:
3/220
