∙ 12y agoFractions are seldom factored, and when they are, primes are not involved.
45/75 reduced to lowest terms is 3/5 or 0.6 .
0.642 as a fraction in its lowest terms is 321/500
Prime factorization is a term that applies to any positive integer and has no particular relation to denominators, except it a useful concept in reducing fractions sto lowest terms. The term means to divide a number into primes, which means numbers that can not be divided further. Example: the prime factorization of 24 is 2*2*2 * 3 ( I use the symbol * to mean multiply) For is 60 is 2*2*3*5 for 49 is 7*7 for 47 is just 47 since this is a prime. To reduce a fraction to lowest terms, find the prime factorization of both the denominator and the numerator and cancel all the common factors. Example : reduce 84/120 84= 2*2*3*7 120 = 2*2*2* 3* 5 so 2 can be canceled twice , and 3 once, so the answer is 7/ 2*5 = 7/10
It means to reduce fractions to their lowest terms as for example 4/8 = 1/2 in its lowest terms
2/3
3/2
2/5
175/245 = (5*5*7)/(5*7*7) = 5/7
No. 22 has prime factorization of 2*11, and 35 has prime factorization of 7*5. Since there are no common prime factors, 22/35 is irreducible (is in lowest terms).
30/150 = 1/5 as a fraction in its lowest terms
It is not possible to reduce a percent to it's lowest terms. It is possible to reduce a fraction to it's lowest terms, however.
no that's as low as it can go because 17 is a prime number
No because 23 is a prime number and so 23/24 is in its lowest terms
0.642 as a fraction in its lowest terms is 321/500
No, it is already a fraction in its lowest terms.
