Best Answer

You simplify fractions by determining the GCF (Greatest Common Factor) of the numerator and denominator.

One of the easiest tricks is to see if the denominator is divisible by the numerator. In this case 48 is divisible by 12. 48/2 = 24. 12/12 = 1. Therefore the fraction 12/48 when simplified is 1/24.
