Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 8/660 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 8 and 660.
To find the greatest common divisor of 8 and 660, 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 660 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 11, 12, 15, 20, 22, 30, 33, 44, 55, 60, 66, 110, 132, 165, 220, 330, 660) we found that 4 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 4 is the largest common factor of 8 and 660, 4 is also the greatest common divisor of 8 and 660.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 8/660 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 8/4 = 2
Denominator: 660/4 = 165
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
8/660 to the simplest form is:
2/165
