Answer 1

Answer:

Here how to simplify fractions

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify a fraction, divide the top and bottom by the highest number that

can divide into both numbers exactly.

Simplifying Fractions

Simplifying (or reducing) fractions means to make the fraction as simple as possible.

Why say four-eighths ( 48) when we really mean half ( 12 ) ?

There are two ways to simplify a fraction:

Method 1

Try to exactly divide (only whole number answers) both the top and bottom of the fraction by 2, 3, 5, 7 ,... etc, until we can't go any further.

Method 2

Divide both the top and bottom of the fraction by the Greatest Common Factor (you have to work it out first!).

Answer 2

⭐⭐Answer⭐⭐

Find the LCM of the numerator and the denominator.

If there are no LCM, then it is the simpliest form.

Else, divide the numerator and denominator by its LCM

You get the simpliest form.
