Answer 2

GIVEN :

• The number which are given to reduce = 42/68 .

TO FIND :

• After reducing 42/68 we get = ? (in simplest / lowest form ).

STEP - BY - STEP EXPLAINATION :

★ STEP 1 : Fist we'll have to observe both the number i.e. Numerator and denominator that they are being dividisibled by which Number.

★ STEP 2 : After we have observed here numerator and denominator we saw here that both 42 'Numerator' and 68 'Denominator'. are divisible by the table of 2 as they are multiple of 2 .

$= > \frac{42}{68} (when \: divisibled \: by \: the \: table \: of \: two we \: get \: here \: as)$

$= > \frac{42}{68} = \frac{21}{34}$

(NOTE :---- if you want to do to get it in simplest form (in fraction ) = 21/34 and if want to get it (in decimal form = 0.617)

Hence, When 42/68 is divided by 2 then we get 21/34 as simplest form (in fraction) and (in decimal = 0.617)

Therefore, the simplest / lowest form of 42/68 = 0.617
