Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 81/999 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 81 and 999.
To find the greatest common divisor of 81 and 999, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 81 (1, 3, 9, 27, 81) and 999 (1, 3, 9, 27, 37, 111, 333, 999) we found that 27 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 27 is the largest common factor of 81 and 999, 27 is also the greatest common divisor of 81 and 999.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 81/999 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 81/27 = 3
Denominator: 999/27 = 37
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
81/999 to the simplest form is:
3/37
