Answer 1

Answer:

A) The lowest term of  $\frac{10}{20}$ is  $\frac{1}{2}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

A fraction is said to be written using the lowest terms if its numerator and denominator are relatively prime, that is, they have no common factors other than 1 .

Given fraction: $\frac{10}{20}$

$\frac{10}{20} = \frac{10 \div 5}{20 \div 5} \\= \frac{2}{4} \\=\frac{2\div2}{4 \div 2} \\=\frac{1}{2}$

The lowest term of  $\frac{10}{20}$ is  $\frac{1}{2}$.
