If the numerator was a factor of the denominator.
When the numerator is a factor of the denominator.
If the numerator is a factor of the denominator.
An expression is in its lowest terms if the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator is one.An expression is in its lowest terms if the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator is one.An expression is in its lowest terms if the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator is one.An expression is in its lowest terms if the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator is one.
Find the greatest common factor between the numerator and the denominator, then divide the numerator by greatest common factor and then divide denominator by greatest common factor, for a new simplified fraction.
simplest form
1 is the greatest common factor of any fraction in lowest terms.
Then the fraction is in its simplest form.
No.
We will need a value for the denominator to answer that.
The fraction is said to be in its lowest terms when the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator is 1
first:you find the gcm(greatest common factor)wich is the lowest number that can go evenly into the numerator and the denominator. next:you devide both the numerator and the denominator by that gcm(greatest common factor)and walla!
You have to find the greatest common factor between the numerator and the denominator. Then you divide numerator and denominator by this greatest common factor. There are several methods to find the greatest common factor. Note that "dividing only once" is not necessarily to your advantage; it is easier to divide by ANY common factor you find, and then continue looking for additional factors.
