You have to figure out all the multiples of the numerator and denominator. So for 6/8 or six eights, we need to figure all the numbers that go evenly into them, excluding 1 and the number itself. 6 has two: 2 and 3. 8 has only one: 2, since 2x2x2 is 8. We can eliminate one of the twos in each of the numbers. This leaves us with 3 and 2x2 which is 4. So it becomes 3/4.

If the GCF of the numerator and the denominator is 1, the fraction is in its simplest form.
It is simply 50/1 as an improper fraction in its simplest form

Find the GCF of 15 and 40. Since the GCF is greater than one, the fraction is not in its simplest form.
17 and 1/24 or 409/24 depending on whether you want a mixed number or an improper fraction.
By finding the GCF of the numerator and the denominator. If the GCF is 1, the fraction is in its simplest form. 15/40 = 3/8
0.725 is a fraction whose absolute value is less than 1. Therefore it is not, and cannot be a mixed number - whether or not in simplest form.
The repeating decimal 0.63 can be written as the fraction 63/99 which is not in its simplest form. To simplify, dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, we get 7/11. Therefore, 0.63 repeating as a fraction in simplest form is 7/11.
