If the numerator is a factor of the denominator.
When the numerator is a factor of the denominator.
Find the GCF of the numerator and the denominator and divide them both by it. If the GCF is 1, the fraction is in its simplest form.
To write 3.2 as a fraction, we can convert it to its equivalent fraction form by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by 10. This gives us 32/10. Simplifying this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, we get the simplified fraction 16/5.
Simplest form refers to expressing a fraction in its most reduced form by simplifying the numerator and denominator to their greatest common divisor. In simplest form, both the numerator and denominator have no common factors other than 1.
To simplify a fraction, divide the numerator and the denominator by their GCF.Example: 30/42The GCF of 30 and 42 is 6.6 into 30 is 56 into 42 is 730/42 = 5/7
The fraction 42 over 50 can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 2. After simplifying, the fraction becomes 21 over 25.
If the numerator was a factor of the denominator.
When a the GCF of the numerator and denominator of a fraction is 1, the fraction is in its simplest form.
The fraction 39/108 can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 3. Simplifying gives the answer 13/36.
Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) between the numerator and denominator, then divide the numerator by GCF and denominator by GCF to get the new numerator and denominator. If the GCF is 1, then the fraction is already simplified. Example: 6/9 --> The GCF is 3, so 6/3= 2 and 9/3 =3, so the new simplified fraction is 2/3.
A fraction where the numerator and denominator have a GCF of 1 is said to be in its simplest form.
the fraction is in its simplest form
