Answer:
The answer is 2427.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The fraction consists of two numbers and a fraction bar: 4,855/200
The number above the bar is called numerator: 4,855
The number below the bar is called denominator: 200
The fraction bar means that the two numbers are dividing themselves.
To get fraction's value divide the numerator by the denominator:
Value = 4,855 ÷ 200
To calculate the greatest common factor, GCF:
1. Build the prime factorizations of the numerator and denominator.
2. Multiply all the common prime factors, by the lowest exponents.
Factor both the numerator and denominator, break them down to prime factors:
Prime Factorization of a number: finding the prime numbers that multiply together to make that number.
4,855 = 5 × 971;
4,855 is a composite number;
In exponential notation:
200 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 5 × 5 = 23 × 52;
200 is a composite number;
