Every fraction has a lowest form ... the form where the numerator and denominator have
no common factor.
But there is no such thing as the highest form. Whatever form of a fraction you give me ...
no matter how high it is ... I can always write it in a higher form than yours. All I have to do
is multiply the numerator and denominator both by any number I choose. That won't change
the value of the fraction, only the 'form' or terms.
A fraction is in its simplest form when the highest common factor of the numerator and the denominator is 1
A fraction is in its simplest form when the highest common factor of the numerator and the denominator is 1
Divide the numerator and denominator by their highest common factor to find the simplest form of a fraction
You find the highest common factor of the numerator and denominator. If that is 1, then the fraction is in its simplest form.
If the highest common factor of its numerator and denominator is 1 then the fraction is in its simplified form.
The fraction will be in its simplest form when the highest common factor of the numerator and denominator is 1
Find the Highest Common Factor (HCF) of the numerator and denominator of the fraction. Divide both by their HCF and you will have the fraction in its simplest form.
By dividing its numerator and its denominator by their highest common factor.
To reduce a fraction into its simplest form divided the numerator and the denominator by their highest common factor
You divide the numerator and denominator of the fraction, or fractional part of the mixed number, by their highest common factor.
Divide the numerator and denominator both by their highest common factors
You need to test that the highest common factor of the numerator and denominator is 1.
