Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 9/870 to the simplest form.
The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 9 and 870.
To find the greatest common divisor of 9 and 870, 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 870 (1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 29, 30, 58, 87, 145, 174, 290, 435, 870) we found that 3 is the largest factor that they have in common.
Since 3 is the largest common factor of 9 and 870, 3 is also the greatest common divisor of 9 and 870.
Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 9/870 by the greatest common divisor as follows:
Numerator: 9/3 = 3
Denominator: 870/3 = 290
Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer.
9/870 to the simplest form is:
3/290
