Question

reduce 12/18 into lowest term using HCF​

Answer 1

$\Huge\mathrm{Question:}$

Reduce $\sf{ \frac{12}{18} }$ into lowest term HCF.

$\Huge\mathrm{Answer:}$ $\Large\mathfrak{\frac{2}{3}}$

$\Huge\mathrm{Explanation:}$

HCF of 12 , 18 = 6

Factors of 12 = 1 , 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

Factors of 18 = 1, 2 , 3, 6, 9, 18

Highest Common factor = 6

Hence, their HCF = 6

So,

$\huge\sf{ \frac{12 \div 6}{18 \div 6 } = \frac{2}{3} }$

Hence the answer is 2/3 .
