Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 8/864 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 8 and 864.
To find the greatest common divisor of 8 and 864, 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 864 (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 18, 24, 27, 32, 36, 48, 54, 72, 96, 108, 144, 216, 288, 432, 864) we found that 8 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 8 is the largest common factor of 8 and 864, 8 is also the greatest common divisor of 8 and 864.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 8/864 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 8/8 = 1
Denominator: 864/8 = 108
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
8/864 to the simplest form is:
1/108
