simplest form
simplest form or lowest terms
Numerators and denominators are whole numbers; taking their GCF helps to reduce a fraction to its simplest form. In the fraction 3/9, the GCF of 3 and 9 is 3. Dividing both numbers by 3 results in 1/3, the simplest form of 3/9.
It is then a fraction in its simplest terms
Since the denominator of the fraction is prime, the proper fraction 15/17 is already expressed in its simplest form.
0.3 written as a fraction is 3/10.

simplest form
When the GCF of the numerator and the denominator is 1, the fraction is written in its simplest form.
simplest form or lowest terms
A fraction is in its simplest form when the GCF of the numerator and the denominator is 1.
The denominator.
That would be the numerator. The numerator is above the denominator. The numerator divided by the denominator would be equal to the quotient. So, numerator/denominator = quotient
The numerator is 1 and the denominator is 10. In fraction form, it is written as 1/10.
The fraction then is written in its simplest form
All rational numbers can be written as one integer (the numerator) over another integer (the denominator). If the numerator is less than the denominator, it is a vulgar (or common) fraction. If the denominator is 1, then only the numerator may be written in which case it may take the form of a whole number, eg 5/1 can also be written as 5. If the numerator equals the denominator, the fraction can be simplified to 1/1 which would be written as the whole number 1. If the numerator is greater than the denominator, then it is an improper (or top heavy) fraction and can be written as a mixed number which is a whole number along with a proper fraction (with the original denominator), eg 5/3 can also be written as 12/3 The denominator can be any non-zero integer, ie zero is not allowed to be the denominator of any fraction.
If the GCF of the numerator and the denominator is 1, the fraction is in its simplest form.
The numerator is greater than the denominator.
