Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 8/942 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 8 and 942.
To find the greatest common divisor of 8 and 942, 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 942 (1, 2, 3, 6, 157, 314, 471, 942) we found that 2 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 2 is the largest common factor of 8 and 942, 2 is also the greatest common divisor of 8 and 942.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 8/942 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 8/2 = 4
Denominator: 942/2 = 471
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
8/942 to the simplest form is:
4/471
