improper fractions
What is 18 over 56 in simple form?
Fractions can be simplified when the numerator and denominator have a common factor in them. If both the numerator and denominator have common factors, then we can cancel these factors out. So the simplest for of 18/56 is 9/28.
How does finding the GCF help you simplify a fraction?
When adding and subtracting unlike fractions, it is necessary to find a least common denominator. It's the same process as finding an LCM. You can simplify a fraction by finding the GCF of the numerator and denominator and dividing them both by it.
How Have You Used GCF When Working With Fractions?
Finding the GCF of the numerator and denominator and dividing them both by it will give you the simplest form of the fraction.
How can common factors help determine a fraction?
by dividing or multiplying the numerator and the denominator of a fraction with the same numberex:* 1/2 = (1 x 5)/(2 x 5) = 5/10(multiples both numerator and denominator with 5)1/2 and 5/10 are equivalent fractions* 14/35 = (14:7)/(35:7) = 2/5(divide both numerator and denominator with common factor of 14 and 35)14/35 and 2/5 are equivalent fractions
What are algebraic fractions whose numerator and denominator are polynomials?
A rational fraction.
What is it called when a fraction in which the numerator and denominator are polynomials?
It is called an algebraic fraction.
An expression which contains polynomials in both th numerator and denominator?

What is true about both the numerator and denominator of rational expressions?
Both the numerator and denominator are polynomials
What describes a fraction that has a variable or variable expression in its numerator its denominator or both?
There is no specific name. If the numerator and denominator are polynomials in the variable then the question describes an algebraic fraction. But there is no reason at all to assume that they are polynomials. There is no specific phrase that describes sin(x)/x, for example.
