What is ten twelfths simplified?

Answer 1

10/12

Since both numbers have '2' as a common factor, divide both number by '2'.

This process is called 'reducing' or 'cancelling down'.

Hence

10/12 = 5/6 (Fully simplified.!!!!!

For all fractions look to reduce/cancel down to the simplest terms, as it makes for easier calculations.

Answer 2

Ten twelfths can be simplified by finding the greatest common divisor of the numerator (10) and the denominator (12), which is 2. Dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2 gives you five-sixths. Therefore, ten twelfths simplified is five-sixths (5/6).
