Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 9/258 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 9 and 258.
To find the greatest common divisor of 9 and 258, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists.
When we compared the factors of 9 (1, 3, 9) and 258 (1, 2, 3, 6, 43, 86, 129, 258) we found that 3 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 3 is the largest common factor of 9 and 258, 3 is also the greatest common divisor of 9 and 258.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 9/258 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 9/3 = 3
Denominator: 258/3 = 86
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
9/258 to the simplest form is:
3/86
