Doing that makes the numbers smaller, so it is easier.
18/35 is the lowest term.
The term for the simplest form for fractions is "lowest terms". If the greatest common factor of the numerator and the denominator is 1, then the fraction is in lowest terms.
To get the equivalent fractions of 15/18:1. Reduce the given fraction to its lowest term so as to get equivalent fractions of lesser value.15/18 = 5/62. Multiply 5/6 by 2/2, 4/4, 5/5,...Equivalent fractions of 15/18 = 10/12, 20/24, 25/30,...
