You NEVER "reduce" a fraction into a "smaller fraction". That would change its value.
The whole idea that runs through everything you do in math is that you only change
the way something looks, but you never change the size of the real number that it
represents.
17/12 can't be reduced to any other fraction with lower terms. But if you want to,
you can write it as 15/12 instead. That doesn't change anything. The two forms are
still exactly the same number.
3/7
12/5 cannot be simplified further.
The fraction 12/35 cannot be reduced any more.
It is 6/61.
Divide by 3/3 9/12 = 3/4
Yes, you can reduce 38 over 24 since these terms have the common factors of 2. Simplify that fraction to: 2 * 19 / (2 * 12) = 19 / 12
Increase the denominator, the number on the bottom of the fraction. 1/11 is smaller for example, 1/12 is smaller again. Etc..
Oh, what a happy little math problem we have here! To reduce the fraction 120 over 132, we can divide both numbers by their greatest common factor, which is 12. So, 120 divided by 12 is 10, and 132 divided by 12 is 11. Therefore, the reduced fraction is 10 over 11. Just like that, we've created a beautiful, simplified fraction!
12/25
5 over 12 = 5/12 in fraction
The GCF of 32 and 12 is 4. Take 4 out of both of them. Get 8/3
4878.583 cannot be expressed as a fraction over 12 because 0.583 is not a fraction over 12.
