What else can I help you with?
How do you simplify a fraction with the Euclidean algorithm?
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.
What does the picture look like if the numerator is greater than the denominator?
If the numerator is greater than the denominator then it is an improper fraction as for example 5/3 but if the numerator is less than the denominator then it is a common fraction as for example 3/4
How do you make fractions into simplest form?
-- 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.
The first step in reducing a rational expression is to do what to both the numerator and denominator?
To reduce a fraction to its lowest terms divide the numerator and the denominator by their highest common factor
How do you know if the fraction that is the sum is in simplest?
The fraction will be in its simplest form when the highest common factor of the numerator and denominator is 1
What is the form of a fraction when the greatest common factor of the numerator and the denominator is one?
When a the GCF of the numerator and denominator of a fraction is 1, the fraction is in its simplest form.
What is a fraction for which the greatest common denominator for the numerator and the denominator is 4?
4/4
Is a fraction with the numerator and denominator have the Greatest Common Factor of 1?
A fraction where the numerator and denominator have a GCF of 1 is said to be in its simplest form.
How can the greatest common factor help you write a fraction in simplest form?
Find the greatest common factor between the numerator and the denominator, then divide the numerator by greatest common factor and then divide denominator by greatest common factor, for a new simplified fraction.
How do we know the fraction is simplify?
When the GCF of the numerator and the denominator is 1.
When the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator of the fraction is 1?
the fraction is in its simplest form
How do you know if a fraction is simplified?
A fraction is considered simplified or reduced when the numerator and denominator have no common factors other than 1. In other words, there is no integer greater than 1 that divides evenly into both the numerator and the denominator. If there are common factors, the fraction can be simplified further by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor.
What is the form of a fraction in which the numerator and denominator have only 1 as their common factor?
The fraction is said to be in its lowest terms when the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator is 1
When the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator of the fraction is 1 what is the fraction called?
simplest form
What is meant by reducing a fraction?
It means dividing the numerator and denominator of the fraction by their greatest common factor.
Numerator and denominator have a greatest common factor of 1?
Then the fraction is in its simplest form.
If a fraction is not in simplest form can the greatest common factor of the numerator and the denominator be 1?
No.
