Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 7/714 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 7 and 714.
To find the greatest common divisor of 7 and 714, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 7 (1, 7) and 714 (1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 17, 21, 34, 42, 51, 102, 119, 238, 357, 714) we found that 7 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 7 is the largest common factor of 7 and 714, 7 is also the greatest common divisor of 7 and 714.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 7/714 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 7/7 = 1
Denominator: 714/7 = 102
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
7/714 to the simplest form is:
1/102
