Simplest form of a fraction definition?
Smallest numerator divisible by the shared smallest denominator.
What is the greatest proper fraction that has 3 different digits?
In a proper fraction the numerator is smaller than the denominator. Since every two-digit number is larger than every one-digit number, there must be a one-digit numerator and two-digit denominator comprising 3 digits total. The greatest fraction will be the one with the largest possible numerator and smallest possible denominator. Choose a numerator of 9 (the largest one-digit number) and a denominator of 10 (the smallest 2-digit number). All 3 digits are different. The answer is 9/10.
What is the smallest fraction with two digit numerator and three digit denominator?
10/100, of course. If you want an irreducible fraction, that would be 10/101.To get a superlatively small fraction, you need a small numerator and a large denominator; therefore the correct answer is 10/999.
What is the least fraction can use with 3 4 and 5?
The smallest fraction is the fraction with the smallest numerator and the largest denominator. The smallest number from 3, 4 and 5 is 3. The largest number from 3, 4 and 5 is 5. The smallest fraction is 3/5
What is the lowest fraction using 1 2 3 4 5 and 6?
The smallest fraction has the smallest numerator and the greatest denominator. If only two of the six numbers can be used then the smallest fraction is 1/6. If all numbers are used then the smallest fraction is 123/654.
Is a fraction that has been simplified to its smallest form?
A fraction in which the numerator and denominator are co-prime.

Why is it when you reduce fractions you need to find the greatest common factor?
The greatest common factor is the largest number that is evenly divisible by both numbers, so if you divide both numerator and denominator by GCF, the numerator and denominator will be the smallest integers possible, and still be an equivalent fraction.
What is the least fraction can use with 3 4 and 5?
The smallest fraction is the fraction with the smallest numerator and the largest denominator. The smallest number from 3, 4 and 5 is 3. The largest number from 3, 4 and 5 is 5. The smallest fraction is 3/5
Would this be an improper fraction the smallest number that can be divided by two or more different denominators?
No. An improper fraction is a fraction whose numerator is larger than the denominator
What is the lowest fraction using 1 2 3 4 5 and 6?
The smallest fraction has the smallest numerator and the greatest denominator. If only two of the six numbers can be used then the smallest fraction is 1/6. If all numbers are used then the smallest fraction is 123/654.
What is an equivalent fraction 6-24?
30
How so you subtract fractions?
You have to get common denominators and then subtract the biggest numerator (top number) by the smallest, you may have to cnacel the fraction down to get the smallest possible fraction
How to change dissimilar fractions to similar fractions?
Note: numerator is the top part of the fraction, denominator is the bottom part. 1) Find a common denominator. It may be the least common denominator, but it need not be; just multiplying the denominators also gives you a common denominator, not necessarily the smallest one. 2) Convert each fraction so that it has this common denominator. This means multiplying numerator and denominator by the same number.
How is it possible to find a fraction smaller than another fraction?
No because the smallest fraction depeneds on how many parts you have for instance if the denominator is larger the fraction is smaller
