find the lowest factor that equals the numerator and denominator.
Find the biggest common factor and divide it by both numbers
Find their highest common factor and you can find the answer. Answer: 1/19
You write 8 over 100: 8/100. To simplify, look for a common factor between the numerator and the denominator. If you find any, divide numerator and denominator by the common factor. Repeat, until you find no more common factors.You write 8 over 100: 8/100. To simplify, look for a common factor between the numerator and the denominator.

To simplify, you need to find a common factor - in this case, it's 2 - and divide both numbers by this common factor.
You find the highest common factor of both numbers and divide each number by it.
Find a common factor of the numerator and denominator and divide both by that number. Repeat until the only common factor is 1. You can do that in one step if you start with the Highest Common Factor (HCF).
I assume that's supposed to be a fraction, 24/72. The idea is to find a common factor - a number that is a factor of both 24 and 72. Then, divide both numbers by this factor. Repeat, until you find no more common factors.
Find the greatest common factor. In this case its 180. So the answer would be 1/3.
Find the GCF when you want to simplify a fraction. Find an LCM when you want to add and subtract fractions.
All you have to do is find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of the numerator and the denominator then divide the fraction by the GCF to simplify a fraction. Hope this helps
To simplify a fraction, the numerator and denominator are divided by a common factor. The simplification process is continued until there is no common factor. By dividing the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor no further simplification is possible.
