This is an instruction for working with fractions. It means

  • find the factors of the numerator (top) and denominator (bottom) of the fraction.
  • encircle - or draw a circle around the Greatest Common Factor (GCF). A rough circle will do, precision is not required.
  • express the original fraction in its lowest terms. That is, so that the numerator and denominator have no factors in common.
