Answer 2

Concept:

A fraction represents a part of a whole or, more generally, any number of equal parts.

Reducing the fraction into its simplest form means that the numerator and denominator should not have common factors or should be co-prime.

Given:

We have the fraction as:

$\frac{714}{1386}$

Find:

We need to reduce the fraction in its simplest form.

Solution:

To reduce the fraction in its simplest form, we will first convert the numerator and the denominator in the factors:

714=2×3×7×17

1386=2×3×3×7×11

$\frac{714}{1386} =\frac{2*3*7*17}{2*3*3*7*11}$

Then, we will eliminate the common factors.

By, solving the expression, we get that:

$\frac{714}{1386} =\frac{17}{33}$

Therefore, by reducing the fraction into its simplest form, we get the fraction as $\frac{714}{1386} =\frac{17}{33}$.
