Another example of our civilization being doomed ....
People can use smartphomes, type questins and send them to obscure internet sites, but can't think for themselves anymore.
I had a funny and enlightening evening with dinner at a Laotean restaurant, a couple of Weizenbeer and a quarter of a bottle of good whisky...
So let me explain :
56 over 252 ...
What's the first thing you notice?
Both numbers are divisible by 2 (at least by 2 !)
So you can also write :
28 over 126 .... still divisible by 2 ....
14 over 63
Gawd , what now ?
Oh, wait, both divisible by 7 ....
2 over 9 ...
No options left ... we are doomed ... doomed .... DOOMED ....
56/225 is in its simplest form.
56/65 is in its simplest form.
51/56 is in its simplest form.
56/27 cannot be simplified.
43 over 56 is in its simplest form, so it cannot be simplified any further.
It is: 56/252 = 2/9 simplified
56/71 is in its simplest form.
27/56 is in its simplest form.
56/225 is in its simplest form.
56/65 is in its simplest form.
51/56 is in its simplest form.
56/55 is already in its simplest form
56/27 cannot be simplified.
11/56 is in its simplest form.
31/56 is in its simplest form.
43 over 56 is in its simplest form, so it cannot be simplified any further.
6 over 56 is 3 over 26 in simplest form because 6/2=3 and 56/2=26.
