24/40
When reducing a fraction, we look to see if either number has a common factor. Since 24' and '40' are even numbers ( end 4 & 0) the will reduce by '2'
Hence
24/40 = 12 /20
Similarly for '12' & '20' it will reduce by '2'
12/20 = 6/10
Similarly for '6' & '10' . it will reduce by '2'
6/10 = 3/5 This will not reduce any further since '3' & '5' are prime numbers
Hence 24/40 = 3/5
However, if you know your multiplication tables, you should see that both '24' & '40' are multiples of '8' and will directly reduce by dividing through by '8'.
Yes, 2/5 * 7/8 * 5/2 = 35/40. If you multiply, the solution is 70/80, which reduces to 35/40, which can be reduced further to 7/8
They are: 6/10, 12/20 and 24/40
1 hour : 40 minutes = 60 minutes : 40 minutes = 60:40 = 3:2 = 1.5, as a fraction.
