Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 61/305 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 61 and 305.
To find the greatest common divisor of 61 and 305, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 61 (1, 61) and 305 (1, 5, 61, 305) we found that 61 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 61 is the largest common factor of 61 and 305, 61 is also the greatest common divisor of 61 and 305.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 61/305 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 61/61 = 1
Denominator: 305/61 = 5
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
61/305 to the simplest form is:
