To simplify a fraction, divide the numerator and the denominator by their GCF. Example: 30/42 The GCF of 30 and 42 is 6. 6 into 30 is 5 6 into 42 is 7 30/42 = 5/7

0.42 is a fraction. It is a fraction in decimal form rather than in the form of a ratio. However, that does not stop it being a fraction. Its equivalent, in rational form, is 42/100. You can simplify this rational fraction if you require.
Oh, dude, you want me to simplify fractions now? Like, sure, I can do that. So, 42 over 105 simplifies to 2 over 5. It's like reducing a recipe - you just gotta divide the top and bottom by the greatest common factor, which in this case is 21. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!
42/63= 2/3. Look for common factors. You can express 42 as 6 x 7 You can express 63 as 9 x 7 Divide by the common factor of 7, and you get 6/9 6 can be expressed as 2 x 3 9 can be expressed as 3 x 3 Divide by the common factor of 3 and you get 2/3 There are no more common factors, so thats your answer. If you're smart, you'd see that 21 was a common factor too, taking you straight to 2/3, but in general, its simpler to find and use smaller factors and repeat the process until there are no more factors.
42 to the second power, also known as 42 squared, 422 = 42 x 42 = 1764.
It is: 42 = 16
42/49
