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 (lowest terms).
For reducing fractions to their lowest terms
It is already in lowest terms.
Only fractions can be in lowest terms. Since 2160 is a whole number, it is already in lowest terms.
It is already in lowest terms.
Knowing the highest common factors of numbers helps to reduce fractions to their lowest terms Factoring helps to find the lowest common multiple of numbers which is useful when adding or subtracting fractions with different denominators.
18/35 is the lowest term.
22.0357143
9/8
In their lowest terms
6/17 is in its lowest terms. 2/8 = 1/4
The term for the simplest form for fractions is "lowest terms". If the greatest common factor of the numerator and the denominator is 1, then the fraction is in lowest terms.
Equivalent fractions are fractions that are the same amount but they have different numbers.
