Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 8/756 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 8 and 756.
To find the greatest common divisor of 8 and 756, 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 756 (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 12, 14, 18, 21, 27, 28, 36, 42, 54, 63, 84, 108, 126, 189, 252, 378, 756) we found that 4 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 4 is the largest common factor of 8 and 756, 4 is also the greatest common divisor of 8 and 756.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 8/756 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 8/4 = 2
Denominator: 756/4 = 189
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
8/756 to the simplest form is:
2/189
