What are common fractions?
When the numerator is less than the denominator then it is a common fraction but if the numerator is greater than the denominator then it is an improper fraction.
Is a fraction or a ratio by dividing the numerator and denominator by a common factor?
Dividing the numerator and denominator by a common factor is how you simplify a fraction.
