Prime factorization of the numerator and the denominator?
140/700
If the numerator of a fraction is a prime number can the fraction be simplied?
Yes, if the denominator is a multiple of the numerator. No, if not.
If the numerator and denominator of a fraction are prime numbers is the fraction in simplest form and why?
Yes. If the numerator and denominator of a fraction are prime, the fraction is in simplest form. The reason is that each number has only two factors, 1 and the number itself. For that reason, it is not possible for the numerator and denominator to have any factors (other than 1) in common.
What is the prime factorization of the fraction 540 over 600?
To find the prime factorization of the fraction 540/600, first simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 60. This simplifies the fraction to 9/10. The prime factorization of 9 is 3^2, and the prime factorization of 10 is 2 * 5. Therefore, the prime factorization of the fraction 540/600 is 3^2/2 * 5.
Can fraction notation be simplified if the numerator and denominator are two different prime numbers?
No. To simplify a fraction the numerator and denominator must have a common factor greater than 1.
When reducing a fraction using prime factorization of the over the factorization of the denominator?
When reducing a fraction, find the GCF of the numerator and denominator and divide them both by it. If the GCF is 1, the fraction is already in its simplest form.
Prime factorization of the numerator and the denominator?
140/700
If the numerator of a fraction is a prime number can the fraction be simplied?
Yes, if the denominator is a multiple of the numerator. No, if not.
Your numerator and denominator are prime number the sum of your numerator and denominator is 4 what fraction are you?
2/2
What is prime factorization in fractions?
You use a factor tree, for the 2 denominators. Yes that is correct the answer on the top but it says 2 denominators. This is the real correct way To do Prime Factorization in fractions first prime factorization the numerator and then the denominator. then put the prime factorization of the numerator on top and put the prime factorization of the denominator on the bottom like fractions.
When a numerator and its denominator are relatively prime a fraction is in what?
simplest form
How can you use prime factorization to write a fraction in simplest form?
The idea is to divide numerator and denominator of a fraction by any common factors. Prime factorization is simply used to find all possible factors.
What is a fraction who's numerator is one less that it's denominator and both the numerator and denominator are prime numbers?
It is 2/3.
How do you know that a fraction is in its lowest term?
When you can no longer find the a common factor between the numerator and the denominator. This can be done by prime factorization (easy to understand, but laborious), or by Euclid's Algorithm, which is much faster (especially for larger numbers).
What the top of the number of a fraction?
The top number of a fraction is the numerator. The bottom number is the denominator. In the fraction 1/5, the number 1 is the numerator, and the number 5 is the denominator.
If the numerator and denominator of a fraction are prime numbers is the fraction in simplest form and why?
Yes. If the numerator and denominator of a fraction are prime, the fraction is in simplest form. The reason is that each number has only two factors, 1 and the number itself. For that reason, it is not possible for the numerator and denominator to have any factors (other than 1) in common.
What is a fraction when it's numerator and it denominator are relitively prime?
The fraction is said to be in its simplest form.
