12/42
We note that both numbers are even, and so will cancel down (divide) by '2'.
Hence
12/42 = 6/21
Again we note that both numbers are multiples of '3'. So cancel down by '3'
Hence
6/21 = 2/7
2/7 will not cancel down any further as both '2' and '7' are prime numbers.
Hence 12/42 = 2/7
NB Fluency with your multiplication tables is critical for this method.
42/48 = 7/8
To find a fraction equivalent to 42/60, we need to simplify it by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 6. This gives us 7/10. Therefore, the fraction equivalent to 42/60 is 7/10.
No. You cannot simplify this fraction.
To simplify the fraction 42/132, you need to find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the numerator (42) and the denominator (132), which is 6. Divide both the numerator and the denominator by the GCF to simplify the fraction. Therefore, 42/132 simplifies to 7/22.
It is: 1/6
18/42 = 3/7
42/48 = 7/8
To simplify the fraction 42 over 7, you divide the numerator (42) by the denominator (7). Since 42 divided by 7 equals 6, the simplified form of the fraction is 6. Therefore, 42 over 7 simplifies to 6.
42 and 5 are co-prime so the fraction cannot be simplified.
To convert a percentage to a fraction, you simply place the percentage value over 100 and simplify the fraction. In this case, 42 percent as a fraction is 42/100. To simplify this fraction, you can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 2. Therefore, 42/100 simplifies to 21/50.
To simplify the fraction 39 over 42, first find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the two numbers. The GCD of 39 and 42 is 3. Divide both the numerator and the denominator by 3: (39 ÷ 3 = 13) and (42 ÷ 3 = 14). Thus, the simplified form of the fraction is ( \frac{13}{14} ).
