Question

If the number and denominator of a fraction have common factor other than Von then the fraction is said to be in the in its what from

Answer 1

Answer:

When the numerator and the denominator of a fraction don't have any common factor other than 1,then the fraction is in it's irreducible form.

Answer 2

Answer:

Reducible Form

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p and q be the numerator and denominator respectively.

Now given in the question that p and q have a common factor other than one.

Thus, the common factor can get cancelled out and the the fraction can get resuced and may(not necessary) get converted into a whole number.

Lets take an example for better explanation.

Let's say p=4 and q=6. Both have 2 as a common factor. Thus the fraction gets reduces from (4/6) to (2/3) . As i mentioned the fraction may or may not convert into a whole number, as is the case here. But if we take p=8 and q=4 then fraction has a common factor of 4 and the fraction gets converted to (2/1) from (8/4).

I hope that helped ☺
