Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 9/768 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 9 and 768.
To find the greatest common divisor of 9 and 768, 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 768 (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, 64, 96, 128, 192, 256, 384, 768) we found that 3 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 3 is the largest common factor of 9 and 768, 3 is also the greatest common divisor of 9 and 768.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 9/768 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 9/3 = 3
Denominator: 768/3 = 256
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
9/768 to the simplest form is:
3/256
