Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 80/976 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 80 and 976.
To find the greatest common divisor of 80 and 976, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 80 (1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80) and 976 (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 61, 122, 244, 488, 976) we found that 16 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 16 is the largest common factor of 80 and 976, 16 is also the greatest common divisor of 80 and 976.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 80/976 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 80/16 = 5
Denominator: 976/16 = 61
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
80/976 to the simplest form is:
5/61
