1/4. When looking for the simplest form, one is looking for the largest number that divides evenly between the numerator and the denominator and we start with the smallest prime numbers to get there.

Since 50 over 200 (50/200) is the starting point, and we know that 50 and 200 are even, we start by dividing both components (numerator and denominator) by 2 as follows:

50 / 2 = 25

200 / 2 = 100

25 / 100

Since we know that 25 and 100 are both divisible by 5, we divide both components by five to get to the next step as follows:

25 / 5 = 5

100 / 5 = 20

5 / 20

Finally, we know that 5 and 20 are also divisible by five, so we divide both components by five to get to simplest form as follows:

5 / 5 = 1

20 / 5 = 4

1 / 4

1/4 is the simplest form.
