For a fraction to be in its simplest form, numerator and denominator must have no common factor.
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 figure simplest forms of fractions?
If the numerator and denominator of a fraction have a common factor (except for '1'), divide both numerator and denominator by their common factor. The fraction is in the simplest form when the numerator and denominator have no common factors.
What is the definition of simplest form in fraction?
If the GCF of the numerator and denominator is 1, the fraction is in its simplest form.
How do you tell if a fraction is simplest form?
A fraction is in its simplest form when the HCF of its numerator and denominator is 1
When a fraction is written in simplest form when a denominator and numerator is 1?
A fraction is in its simplest form when the GCF of the numerator and the denominator is 1.
A fraction is reduced to its simplest form when the numerator?
For a fraction to be in its simplest form, numerator and denominator must have no common factor.
When the numerator and the denominator have only the number 1 as a common factor?
Yes. When the numerator and denominator have a GCF of 1, the fraction is in the simplest form. To simplify, find the GCF and divide both numerator and denominator by the same: Example: simplify 30/40 30/40 divided by 10/10 (1) = 3/4
