how to write a fraction in lowest terms?
Find the GCF of the numerator and the denominator and divide them both by it. If the GCF is 1, the fraction is in its simplest form.
How do you subtract a fraction?
Find a common denominator (make sure you multiply BOTH the numerator and the denominator) then subtract the numerators and simplify if necessary.
Describe how to find a decimal equivalent to a given fraction?
Using ordinary long division, divide the fraction's numerator by its denominator.
How do you divide a fraction into its lowest terms?
Find the GCF of the numerator and the denominator and divide them both by it. If the GCF is 1, the fraction is in its simplest form.
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.
How do you find the denominator and numerator in a fraction?
Numerator ________ Demomerator
Do you divide by the numerator or denominator?

Simply change the numerator and you will have another - different - fraction wit the same denominator.
How do you find a fraction equivalent to a given fraction?
You can multiply is numerator and denominator by the same number
What is the rule for reducing a fraction to its lowest term?
Find the highest common factor (HCF) of the numerator and denominator. If it is 1, then the fraction is already in its lowest term.If not, divide the numerator by the HCF for the new numerator.Divide the denominator by the HCF for the new denominator.The new numerator over the new denominator is the fraction in its lowest terms.
Why do you need to factor the numerator and the denominator?
To find out if the fraction is in its simplest form.
How do you make fractions into simplest form?
-- Find any common factor of the numerator and denominator, and divide numerator and denominator by it. -- Keep doing that until the numerator and denominator no longer have any common factor except ' 1 '. The fraction is then in its simplest form.
