What is 75 over 100 in simplest form?

Answer 1

2

Answer 2

There are many ways, I typically start small, for this question I see that both are divisible by 5 so divide the top and bottom by 5, giving 15/20, and then I can see I can divide by 5 again giving 3/4

OR you can factor the top and bottom giving the following

75/100 = (5x5x3)/(5x5x4)

you can cancel out the 5x5 on the top and bottom and then you are simply left with 3/4

Yet another way is to find the GCD of 75 and 100: in this case it is 25, divide both by 25 and you have your answer of:

3/4

Answer 3

3/40

Answer 4

It is 3/4.
