Best Answer

You do the same thing to both sides. For example, 5/10 simplified is 1/2 because you divided by five on both sides. 5 goes in to five once and goes into 10 twice. Another example is 30/90. That is 1/3 because 30 goes into itself once and 30 goes into 90 three times. One more example is 4/10. Since 4 does not go in to 10 evenly, you would divide by 2. So, 4/10 simplified is 2/5.

What is 1.5 as a fraction?

1.5 as a fraction would be 1 1/2 (one and a half), since the 1 represents a whole, and the .5 represents a half. It can also be written as 3/2 since 3 divided by 2 = 1.5, which also = 1 1/2. In general: if you have a number with finite number of digits after decimal separator, you should make a fraction, where the denominator will be that number, but without decimal separator, and the denominator will be 1 with so many zeros, as are there after the separator. 1.5=15/10 Now we can simplyfy this fraction, for 15=3x5 and 10=2x5 15/10=3/2 Another example : 2.25=225/100=9/4
