Dividing the numerator and denominator by a common factor is how you simplify a fraction.
When the GCF of the numerator and the denominator is 1.
Yes. When the numerator and denominator have a GCF of 1, the fraction is in the simplest form. To simplify, find the GCF and divide both numerator and denominator by the same: Example: simplify 30/40 30/40 divided by 10/10 (1) = 3/4
If the numerator and denominator are prime numbers and not equal then they don't have common factors (except 1 which would be a common factor even if the numerator and denominator were prime numbers).
