45 over 60, in simplest form, is 3 over 4.3/4
As a fraction 15/60 We now look to cancel down/reduce. So we need to find a common factor. '2' is NOT a common factor because '15' is an 'odd' number, and will not divide by '2'. So try '3'. Yes!!! '3' is a common factor ; 3 x 5 = 15 and 3 x 20 = 60 So cancel down/reduce by '3' 15/60 = 5/20 Again we repeat the process. '2' is NOT a common factor '3' is NOT a common factor So try '5' Yes!!! '5' is a common factor ; 5 x 1 = 5 and 5 x 4 = 20 So cancel /reduce by '5' 5/20 = 1/4 The answer!!!! This is '15/60' in its fully reduced form ( 1/4 ; in words one quarter). However, your arithmetic may be more facile, and you can see that '15' is a common factor to both '15' & '60'. So you can reduce it directly to '1/4'. NB When cancelling down/reducing fractions us prime numbers to start the reduction process. . There are millions of prime numbers, but star by using ,2,3,5,7,11,13,.... Hope that helps!!!!
