Question

simplest form of the fraction 8/16 with examples ​

Answer 1

• Fraction, is the simplified fraction for $\frac{8}{16}$ by using the GCD or HCF method.

 GCD Method:

 Address the formula, input parameters in the values

 Putting the values, we get,

 The given fraction =$8 / 16$

 Step-2 -Find GCD (Greatest Common Factor) for both numerators and denominators.

The GCF for $8$ and $16$ is $8.$

 Step 3- divide the numerator with denominator by GCD 8 and rewrite the fraction  

 $\begin{array}{l}=(8 / 8) /(16 / 8) \\=1 / 2\end{array}$

  Hence, $1 / 2$ is the simplified fraction for $8 / 16$ by using the GCD or HCF method.

Answer 2

Given fraction:- $\frac{8}{16}$

As we have to simplify it to its simplest form,

For that, we need to find GCD for both numerator and denominator.

So, the GCF of $8$ and $16$ is $8.$

Now, divide both numerator and denominator by $8,$

$=>\frac{1}{2}$

Thus, the simplest form of $\frac{8}{16}$ is $\frac{1}{2}.$
