Question

How do you evaluate `339 / 33`?

Answer 1

113/11

Explanation:

We can write out as many significant factors as possible,

`339/33 = (3*113)/(3*11)`, we can very quickly see that both numbers are now prime numbers and cannot be factored any further.

Now we can cross out the common factors because the common factors divided by each other equal to `3/3 =1/1`.
`(cancel3*113)/(cancel3*11) = 113/11`
