Simplify 6/8 to the Simplest Form
| Here we will show you step-by-step how to simplify 6/8 to the simplest form. The key to solving this problem is to find the greatest common divisor of 6 and 8. To find the greatest common divisor of 6 and 8, we list all of the factors of both numbers so we can compare the lists. When we compared the factors of 6 (1, 2, 3, 6) and 8 (1, 2, 4, 8) we found that 2 is the largest factor that they have in common. Since 2 is the largest common factor of 6 and 8, 2 is also the greatest common divisor of 6 and 8. Now, we divide both the numerator and denominator in 6/8 by the greatest common divisor as follows: Numerator: 6/2 = 3 Denominator: 8/2 = 4 Then, we put the numerator and denominator that we are left with back together to get our answer. 6/8 to the simplest form is: 3/4 Simplify 6/9 to the Simplest Form Go here for the next fraction we simplified to the simplest form. |
