How to simplify fractions?
Find the Greatest Common Factor of the numerator and denominator, then divide the numerator by the GCF, and that is the new numerator. Divide the denominator by the GCF, and that is the new denominator.
How can the GCF of a fraction equal the numerator?
If the numerator is a factor of the denominator, the GCF of the two will be the numerator.
How can the GCF be used to write a fraction in simplest form?
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.
What is a fraction in which the GCF of the numerator and the denominator is 1 is written?
When the GCF of the numerator and the denominator is 1, the fraction is written in its simplest form.
What is in simplest form when GCF of the numerator and denominator is 1?
Any fraction is in simplest form when its numerator and denominator have a GCF of 1.
When the gcf of the denominator is 1?
When the GCF of the numerator and denominator is 1, the fraction is in its simplest form.
How do you do simplest form?
how to find simplest form is: 1. Find the GCF of the numerator and denominator 2. Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF
What is the gcf of the numerator and denominator of 14 and sixteen?
The GCF is 2.
How do you change fraction to lowest term?
first find the GCF of the number and then divide both numerator and denominator by .
What is a fraction in which the denominator and numerator have a gcf of 1?
A fraction in lowest terms is one in which the numerator and denominator have a GCF of 1. An example is 4/9
What is a common multiple in which the GCF of the numerator and denominator is 1?
If the GCF of two numbers is 1, the LCM is their product. If the GCF of the numerator and denominator is 1, the fraction is in its simplest form.
What is the gcf of the numerator and denominator 132 over 144?
