To simplify the fraction using the greatest common factor, we need to find the largest number that divides both the numerator and the denominator.

The prime factorization of 160200 is 2^3 * 3^2 * 5^2 * 89.

The prime factorization of 40 is 2^3 * 5.

The greatest common factor between 160200 and 40 is 2^3 * 5 = 40.

Dividing the numerator and the denominator by 40, we get 160200/40 = 4005.

So, the simplified fraction is 4005.
