example of reducibl fraction.
Answers
Answer:
For example, 1⁄4, 5⁄6, and −101⁄100 are all irreducible fractions. On the other hand, 2⁄4 is reducible since it is equal in value to 1⁄2, and the numerator of 1⁄2 is less than the numerator of 2⁄4. A fraction that is reducible can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by a common factor.
A Reducible Fraction
What is a reducible fraction?
A fraction that is not in its simplest form and can be reduced at both the numerator and denominator to form a simple fraction is known as reducible fraction.
That is, we can divide both the denominator and the numerator by the same number once or multiple times to derive a simple fraction.
Example:
4/16
Here we can divide both the sides by 4 to obtain 1/4. We can't divide the number further.
10/25
This number can be divided by 5 on both sides to obtain 2/5 which is in its simplest form.
