Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 8/640 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 8 and 640.
To find the greatest common divisor of 8 and 640, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 8 (1, 2, 4, 8) and 640 (1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 32, 40, 64, 80, 128, 160, 320, 640) we found that 8 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 8 is the largest common factor of 8 and 640, 8 is also the greatest common divisor of 8 and 640.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 8/640 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 8/8 = 1
Denominator: 640/8 = 80
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
8/640 to the simplest form is:
1/80
