42 and 5 are co-prime so the fraction cannot be simplified.
5/24 is already in its simplest form as a fraction
To simplify a fraction, divide the numerator and the denominator by their GCF. Example: 42/30 The GCF of 30 and 42 is 6. 6 into 30 is 5 6 into 42 is 7 42/30 = 7/5
If you simplify it, you get 501 and 2/5 (<----fraction).
5/25 = 1/5
To simplify a fraction, divide the numerator and the denominator by their GCF. Example: 30/42 The GCF of 30 and 42 is 6. 6 into 30 is 5 6 into 42 is 7 30/42 = 5/7
It is: 25/5 = 5/1 => 5
In mathematics, "simplify" means to reduce, usually through factoring. If you are asked to simplify the fraction 30/42, find the GCF of 30 and 42 and divide each number by it. Since the GCF of 30 and 42 is 6, the result would be 5/7.
