Write the following fractions in thesimplest form:1. 20/52. 12/963. 100/2

Sagot :

So the first fraction is:

1)

[tex]\frac{20}{5}[/tex]

So we have to find a number that is multiple of 20 and 5, in this case is the number 5. the we have to divide the two numbers in 5:

[tex]\frac{5}{5}=1\to\text{ }\frac{20}{5}=4[/tex]

So at the end the fraction is going to be equal to:

[tex]\frac{20}{5}=4[/tex]

2)

[tex]\frac{12}{96}[/tex]

and 12 and 96 are multiples of two, so we can divide by 2

[tex]\frac{12}{2}=6\to\frac{96}{2}=48[/tex]

now we need to find other number that is multiple of 6 and 48, and agins is the number 2:

[tex]\frac{6}{2}=3\to\frac{48}{2}=24[/tex]

Now 3 and 24 are multiples of 3, so we make the same procedure:

[tex]\frac{3}{3}=1\to\frac{24}{3}=8[/tex]

So at the end is going to be:

[tex]\frac{12}{96}=\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

3)

[tex]\frac{100}{2}[/tex]

100 and 2 are multiples of 2, so we divide them by 2:

[tex]\frac{100}{2}=50\to\frac{2}{2}=1[/tex]

So the final Resold will be:

[tex]\frac{100}{2}=\frac{50}{1}=50[/tex]
