Step-by-step explanation:

GCD Method :

step 1 Address the formula, input parameters & values.

Input parameters & values:

The given fraction = 66/1000

step 2 Find GCD (Greatest Common Factor) for both numerator & denominator.

The GCF for 66 & 1000 is 2

step 3 divide the numerator & denominator by GCD 2 and rewrite the fraction

= (66/2) / (1000/2)

= 33/500

Thus, 33/500 is the simplified fraction for 66/1000 by using the GCD or HCF method.

Prime Factorization Method :

step 1 Address input parameters & values.

Input parameters & values:

The given fraction = 66/1000

step 2 Find prime factors for both numerator & denominator and rewrite the fraction in the form of prime factors

Prime factors for 66 = 2 x 3 x 11

Prime factors for 1000 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 5 x 5 x 5

= (2 x 3 x 11) / (2 x 2 x 2 x 5 x 5 x 5)

step 3 solve & rewrite the fraction

= ( 3 x 11)/( 2 x 2 x 5 x 5 x 5)

= 33/500
