Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 89/89 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 89 and 89.
To find the greatest common divisor of 89 and 89, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 89 (1, 89) and 89 (1, 89) we found that 89 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 89 is the largest common factor of 89 and 89, 89 is also the greatest common divisor of 89 and 89.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 89/89 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 89/89 = 1
Denominator: 89/89 = 1
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get 1/1.
1/1 is an improper fraction, which means we have to simplify further.
1 divided by 1 is 1, so the answer is:
1
The answer here happened to be a whole number, so you also could have simply divided 89 by 89 to get the same answer.
