Can you simplify 15 over 60?

Answer 1

Yes, you can, because 15 goes into 15 once and 60 4 times, so it is simplified to 1 over 4. If you don't know your 15 times table, or cannot see 15 in 15 over 60, you can use 5 - 5 goes into 15 3 times and 5 goes into 60 12 times, so it is 3 over 12, whih can be simplified by dividing by 3. 3 goes into 3 once and 3 goes into 12 4 times so it is 1 over 4.
