if you mean simplify a mixed number, like 1 6/12, then you take a number that divides into both numbers that is not 1, as in this case, it would be 2 or 3 or 6. Let's take 3. Now the number is simplified into 1 2/4. Then, continue dividing again until no more whole numbers can be used except for 1. The solution to the question above would be 1 1/2.

no it means by like
23/5 and simplify it
-lovely joy
[yes lovely joy is my real name and no joy is not my last name yes my first name is lovely joy my last name is somthing else]
Convert the fractions into equivalent fractions with the same denominator. In actually adding mixed numbers, it is easier to convert the mixed numbers into improper (top heavy) fractions, do the addition, simplify the resulting fraction and convert any resulting improper fraction back into a mixed number.
step 1 write each mixed number as an improper fraction step 2 look for common factor and simplify step 3 multiply write the product as a mixed number
You cannot simplify them. If they are negative they have to stay negative.
6.6/0.2
First you make them into improper fractions. E.g 2 4/10 = 24/10 Then you simplify them. E.g 24/10 = 12/5 After that youchange them back into mixed numbers. E.g 12/5 = 2 2/5
no you can only simplify ones such as 2 and 4 eiths
You can simplify an improper fraction, unless the numbers are prime. Simplify it like how you would regularly, but don't forget that you can always turn it into a mixed number.
no not really if your just doing it but if it for school and for a grade you should do both just to be sure.
which mixed number or improper fraction is closest to the decimal 5.27?
Simplify the fractional part, and then rewrite it with the integer part in front. For example, if asked to simplify 715/25, all you need to do is to simplify 15/25 = 3/5. The answer, then, is 73/5.
yes you can simplify a mixed number b but only if the numerator and denominator can be divided
Convert the fractions into equivalent fractions with the same denominator. In actually adding mixed numbers, it is easier to convert the mixed numbers into improper (top heavy) fractions, do the addition, simplify the resulting fraction and convert any resulting improper fraction back into a mixed number.
step 1 write each mixed number as an improper fraction step 2 look for common factor and simplify step 3 multiply write the product as a mixed number
3 1/10 then to simplify it 31/10
You can simplify fractions, sometimes, but you can never simplify whole numbers.
You multiply the whole number by the denominator and then add the numerator. This is your numerator. You have the same denominator as you did before. Simplify. Example: 5 and 1/2. 5x2+1=11. 11/2. You can't simplify
Just multiply the numerator by the whole number, and keep the same denominator. After you do that, chances are that you'll have to simplify the fraction to a mixed number.
