Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 63/252 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 63 and 252.
To find the greatest common divisor of 63 and 252, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 63 (1, 3, 7, 9, 21, 63) and 252 (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 12, 14, 18, 21, 28, 36, 42, 63, 84, 126, 252) we found that 63 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 63 is the largest common factor of 63 and 252, 63 is also the greatest common divisor of 63 and 252.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 63/252 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 63/63 = 1
Denominator: 252/63 = 4
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
63/252 to the simplest form is:
1/4
