For a _positive_ fraction to be proper and in lowest terms, the numerator must be less than the denominator and be relatively prime.
For denominator 1: 0 possible numerators.
For denominator 2: 1 possible numerator.
For denominator 3: 2 possible numerators.
For denominator 4: 2 possible numerators.
For denominator 5: 4 possible numerators.
For denominator 6: 2 possible numerators.
For denominator 7: 6 possible numerators.
For denominator 8: 4 possible numerators.
For denominator 9: 6 possible numerators.
Adding all of them together gives 27 positive proper fractions in lowest terms.
Symmetrically, there are 27 negative proper fractions in lowest terms.
Also, 0/1 is in lowest terms by the above definition.
So in total, there are 55 proper fractions in lowest terms with denominator being an integer from 1 to 9.

How do you write a mixed number to a fraction?
You multiply the denominator by the whole number, then add the numerator of the original fraction to get the numerator of your new fraction. The denominator stays the same as the original. Then you simplify into lowest terms.
When the numerator and denominator have 1 as their only common factor?
then that is your simplest formIt is an irreducible fraction or one in its lowest or simplest form.A fraction that is reduced to lowest terms.If a fraction's numerator and denominator have no factors other than one in common, the fraction cannot be simplified except if the denominator is 1, in which case the fraction can be simplified to the whole number of the numerator.
Write the number 1 in fraction with a denominator 4?
I think 4/4. The fraction when converted to the lowest term will become 1.
How do you figure the fraction in the lowest term?
u need to find a number that the numerator and the denominator goes into and then u will get it
What is the denominator and numerator?
They are both parts of a fraction. The denominator is the bottom number, what the equation is out of, 2/3 , in this case the denominator is the number 3. and the numerator is the number on top, in this case the number 2.
How do I make an equivalent fraction?
Multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same counting number.
How do your figure out a equal fraction?
Multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same counting number.
Is the lowest number is denominator?

How do you write a mixed number to a fraction?
You multiply the denominator by the whole number, then add the numerator of the original fraction to get the numerator of your new fraction. The denominator stays the same as the original. Then you simplify into lowest terms.
Is reducing a fraction the highest or lowest number that can go into a number?
Highest number that can go into the numerator and denominator.
How do you reduce a fraction to lowest terms?
Find the GCF of the numerator and the denominator. Divide each of them by that number. If the GCF is 1, the fraction is already in its lowest terms.
When is a fraction in its lowest terms?
When no whole number will not go into both the numerator and the denominator evenly.

How do you change fraction to lowest term?
first find the GCF of the number and then divide both numerator and denominator by .
Which number in the numerator would already be in lowest terms in a fraction with 128 in the denominator?
Any odd integer.
