Answer:
1. 3/5
2. 3/4
3. 2/7
4.1/6
5. 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 15 ÷ 5= 3
25 ÷ 5= 5
= 3/5
2. 12 ÷ 4= 3
16 ÷ 4 = 4
= 3/4
3. 10 ÷ 5= 2
35 ÷ 5= 7
= 2/7
4. 8 ÷ 4= 2
48 ÷ 4 = 12
2/12 can still be simplified
So , 2 ÷ 2= 1 and 12 ÷ 2= 6
=1/6
5. 9 ÷ 9= 1
27 ÷ 9 = 3
= 1/3
Remember:
If you want to simplify a fraction fast don't use small numbers, determine the largest factor that is common between the two.
EXAMPLE:
The number 4 in this question is 8/48
8 can be divided by 4 but also in 8 same as the number 48
Instead of dividing them by 4 you can easily divide them by 8.
Steps:
8 ÷ 8= 1
48 ÷ 8= 6
= 1/6
