How do you simplify 765 over 2023?

Look for some low prime numbers as factors of both 765 and 2023.

2023 = 7 x 289 = 7 x 17 x 17
765 = 153 x 5 = 51 x 3 x 5
17 x 3 x 3 x 5
It looks like the only comon factor is 17. Cancel it out of the numerator and denominator

45/119

To simplify 765 over 2023, you need to find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of both numbers and divide both the numerator and denominator by this common divisor.

1. Find the GCD of 765 and 2023:
- One method to find the GCD is to list the factors of each number:
- Factors of 765: 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 27, 45, 81, 135, 243, 405, 729, 1215, 2023
- Factors of 2023: 1, 7, 17, 119, 289, 2023
- The common factors of 765 and 2023 are 1. Therefore, the GCD is 1.

2. Divide both the numerator (765) and denominator (2023) by the GCD:
- 765 ÷ 1 = 765
- 2023 ÷ 1 = 2023

Therefore, the simplified form of 765 over 2023 is 765 over 2023 itself, as there is no greater common divisor other than 1.
