Identify GCD: Identify the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and the denominator.The numerator is 14 and the denominator is 77. We need to find the largest number that divides both 14 and 77 without leaving a remainder.GCD of 14 and 77 is 7.
Divide by GCD: Divide both the numerator and the denominator by the GCD to simplify the fraction.(14÷7)/(77÷7)=2/11
Check for further simplification: Check if the fraction can be simplified further.Since 2 and 11 have no common divisors other than 1, the fraction is in its simplest form.
