Answer:
17/29
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find HCF of 391 and 667.
=> 667 = 391*1 + 276 (Euclid's division lemma)
=> 391 = 276*1 + 115
=> 276 = 115*2 + 46
=> 115 = 46*2 + 23
=> 46 = 23*2 + 0
Thus, 23 is HCF of 391 and 667.
Now, divide both 391 and 667.
391/667
=> (391*23)/(667/23)
=> 17/29 (17 and 29 can't be divided further as they are primes.)
