The question is ambiguous because division is not an associative operation. The order in which repeated operations of division are carried out does affect the answer.
625 over (1000/125) = 625/8 = 78.125
whereas
(625 over 1000) / 125 = 0.625 / 125 = 0.005
The HCF is 125
250, 375, 500, 625, 750, 875, 1000 and so on.
The GCF of 625 and 1000 is 125
The GCF is 125.
125
1 / 8 = .125 5 / 8 = .625 .125 + .625 = .75
125 / 625 is the same as 1/5, as 125 goes into 625 five times.
5
It is: 125/625 = 1/5
1.6
250, 375, 500, 625, 750, 875, 1000 +125 . . .
To simplify a fraction divide the numerator and denominator by any common factors greater than 1 until the highest common factor between them is 1. (If you can find and divide by the highest common factor it can be done in one stage.) If a number ends in 0 or 5 it is divisible by 5: 625/1000 = (625÷5)/(1000÷5) = 125/200 = (125÷5)/(200÷5) = 25/40 = (25÷5)/(40÷5) = 5/8
