Simplest Form
1
) List the factors for the numerator and the denominator
2
) Circle the Greatest Common Factor (GCF)
3
) Divide both the numerator and the denominator by the GCF (whatever you do to the top you must do to the bottom!)Slide2
Example: 20/24
1
) List Factors
20: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20
24: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24
2) Circle GCF (4)
3) Divide
20
divided by 4 = 5
24 divided by 4= 6
Simplest form= 5/6
