-- The numerator is a number.
-- The denominator is a number.
-- Together, they comprise two numbers. Their gcf is found by using the same process
you use to find the gcf of any other two numbers:
-- List all the factors of the first number.
-- List all the factors of the other number.
-- Compare the lists. Any number that appears on both lists is a common factor
of the two numbers.
-- The greatest of those is the greatest common factor of the two numbers.

How to simplify fractions?
Find the Greatest Common Factor of the numerator and denominator, then divide the numerator by the GCF, and that is the new numerator. Divide the denominator by the GCF, and that is the new denominator.
How can the GCF be used to write a fraction in simplest form?
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.
How do you do simplest form?
how to find simplest form is: 1. Find the GCF of the numerator and denominator 2. Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF
How do you change fraction to lowest term?
first find the GCF of the number and then divide both numerator and denominator by .
How can the GCF of a fraction equal the numerator?
If the numerator is a factor of the denominator, the GCF of the two will be the numerator.
How do you make fractions into simplest form?
-- Find any common factor of the numerator and denominator, and divide numerator and denominator by it. -- Keep doing that until the numerator and denominator no longer have any common factor except ' 1 '. The fraction is then in its simplest form.
How do you reduce fractions?
Find the GCF of the numerator and the denominator. If the GCF is greater than 1, divide both numbers by it. If the GCF is 1, the fraction is already in its simplest form.Example 30/42.The GCF of 30 and 42 is 6.The reduced fraction is 5/7.Find the GCF of the numerator and the denominator. If the GCF is greater than 1, divide the numerator and denominator by it. If the GCF is 1, the fraction is already in its simplest form.
How do you make improper fraction into simples form?
Find the GCF of the numerator and the denominator. Divide each number by the GCF, the result is the simplest form. If the GCF of the numerator and the denominator is 1, the fraction is already in its simplest form.
What is a fraction in which the GCF of the numerator and the denominator is 1 is written?
When the GCF of the numerator and the denominator is 1, the fraction is written in its simplest form.
What is in simplest form when GCF of the numerator and denominator is 1?
Any fraction is in simplest form when its numerator and denominator have a GCF of 1.
How do you simplest?
Find the GCF of the numerator and denominator and divide them both by it. If the GCF is 1, the fraction is in its simplest form.
How do you simplify an equivalent fraction?
Find the GCF of the numerator and denominator and divide them both by it.
