How to simplify fractions

There are some different ways to simplify or reduce a fraction. See some examples below:

Method ane - Continue Dividing by a Small Number

Starting time by dividing both the top and lesser numbers of the fraction by the same number, and repeat this if necessary until it is impossible to carve up. Brainstorm dividing by a small number like ii, iii, 5, 7. For example,

Simplify the fraction 12/60

Beginning divide both (numerator/denominator) past 2 to become 6/30.
Carve up both of those by ii to become 3/15, then,
Dissever both of those by 3 to get 1/v.

In the fraction 1/five, i is only divisible by itself, and 5 is not divisible by other numbers than itself and 1, so the fraction has been simplified as much as possible. No further reduction is possible, then the reply is ane/five.

Method two

To reduce a fraction to lowest terms (also called its simplest form), just divide both the numerator and denominator past the Greatest Common Factor (GCF or GCD). For case, 2/3 is in everyman form, only four/6 is not in everyman class (the GCD of 4 and 6 is 2) and 4/vi tin exist expressed as ii/3. You can do this because the value of a fraction is not changed if both the numerator and denominator are multiplied or divided past the same number (other than zero).
