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.

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
To simplify 12 over 16, you need to find the greatest common factor (GCF) of both numbers, which is 4. Divide both the numerator (12) and the denominator (16) by the GCF to simplify the fraction. Therefore, 12 over 16 simplifies to 3 over 4.
You cannot simplify them. If they are negative they have to stay negative.
