Answer 2

Answer:

To reduce numbers to the lowest form, we have to find a common factor of both the numerator and denominator.

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) 8/18

Common factor in 8/18 is 2.

So, lets divide 8/18 with 2,

8/2 = 4

18/2 = 9

So the answer we got is 4/9.

Now to check if the number is in its lowest form, try to find out another common factor. If you cant find out, that means its in its lowest form.

So in 4/9, there are no more common factors.

:- 4/9 is the lowest form of 8/18

(2) 27/36

Common Factor = 3

27/3 = 9

36/3 = 13

So the lowest form of 27/36 = 9/13
