Find the GCF of the numerator and the denominator and divide them both by it. If the GCF is 1, the fraction is in its simplest form.

To 'reduce' or 'simplify' a fraction, divide numerator and denominator by
their greatest common factor.

If their GCF is ' 1 ' then the fraction is already in its lowest terms.
