-- Find any common factor of the numerator and denominator, and divide numerator and denominator by it. -- Keep doing that until the numerator and denominator no longer have any common factor except ' 1 '. The fraction is then in its simplest form.
1) You use the Euclidian algorithm to find the greatest common factor between the numerator and the denominator. 2) You divide numerator and denominator by this greatest common factor. This will give you an equivalent fraction in simplest terms.
The fraction will be in its simplest form when the highest common factor of the numerator and denominator is 1
A fraction is in its simplest form if its denominator (bottom half of the fraction) and numerator (top half of the fraction) cannot be divided by the same number to equal a fraction with whole numbers in the numerator and denominator. [When you 'cancel' a fraction out (divide it to get a smaller fraction, closer to the simplest form) you must do the same sum to the numerator AND the denominator, so you must be able to divide the numerator by the same number you divide the numerator by, as the fraction cannot contain decimals or remainders (it must be a whole number] e.g. 3/6 is NOT in its simplest form, as you can divide both numbers by 3, meaning that the simplest form would be 1/3 1/3 is in its simplest form, as although you could divide the denominator by 3, you cannot divide the numerator by 3 to equal a whole number.
simplest form
You get an equivalent fraction which is not in its reduced (or simplest) form.
A fraction is in its simplest form when the GCF of the numerator and the denominator is 1.
It is the equivalent fraction in which the numerator and denominator have no factor in common [other than 1].
The ratio of the numerator to the denominator remains the same.
The numerator of a fraction is the number on top and the denominator is the number at the bottom.Search for a common factor, of the numerator and denominator. That is a whole number that goes into both of them evenly.If the only such number is 1, then you are done. If not,Divide both the numerator and denominator by that common factor to give an equivalent fraction with a new numerator and denominator.Go back to step 1.
5/7 is a fraction in its simplest form. To create an equivalent fraction it is necessary to multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same integer. The opposite is also true. To reduce an equivalent fraction to its simplest form, it is necessary to divide both the numerator and the denominator by the same integer. 20/28 is an equivalent fraction of 5/7. It is possible to reduce 20/28 to 10/14 by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 2, but that is not the simplest form. 10/14 can be reduced to 5/7 by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 2 again. To ensure that an equivalent fraction is reduced to its simplest form, it is necessary to divide by the largest factor that is part of both of them. Another term for this the Greatest Common Factor, or GCF.
Yes. When the numerator and denominator have a GCF of 1, the fraction is in the simplest form. To simplify, find the GCF and divide both numerator and denominator by the same: Example: simplify 30/40 30/40 divided by 10/10 (1) = 3/4
For a fraction to be in its simplest form, numerator and denominator must have no common factor.
When the GCF of the numerator and the denominator is 1, the fraction is written in its simplest form.
Any fraction is in simplest form when its numerator and denominator have a GCF of 1.
When a the GCF of the numerator and denominator of a fraction is 1, the fraction is in its simplest form.
If the numerator and denominator of a fraction have a common factor (except for '1'), divide both numerator and denominator by their common factor. The fraction is in the simplest form when the numerator and denominator have no common factors.
