[tex]\frac{4}{12}[/tex]

GCF of 4 and 12 is 4.

We need to divide the GCF into 4 and 12.

[tex]\frac{4\div4}{12\div4} =\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]2 ) \ \ \boxed{\frac{2}{7}}[/tex]

[tex]{\frac{10}{35}}\\[/tex]

GCF of 10 and 35 is 5.

[tex]\frac{10\div5}{35\div5} = \frac{2}{7}[/tex]

[tex]3) \ \ \boxed{\frac{1}{4} }[/tex]

[tex]\frac{4}{16}[/tex]

GCF of 4 and 16 is 4.

[tex]\frac{4\div4}{16\div4} = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

[tex]4) \ \ { \boxed{\frac{5}{6}}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{15}{18}[/tex]

GCF of 15 and 18 is 3.

[tex]\frac{15\div3}{18\div3} = \frac{5}{6}[/tex]

[tex]5 ) \ \ \boxed{\frac{2}{3}}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{6}{9}[/tex]

GCF of 6 and 9 is 3.

[tex]\frac{6\div3}{9\div3} =\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Problem: Find the lowest term of each fraction using any methods.

  • 1.) [tex] \frac{4}{12} \div \frac{4}{4} = \frac{1}{3} [/tex]

  • 2.) [tex] \frac{10}{35} \div \frac{5}{5} = \frac{2}{7} [/tex]

  • 3.) [tex] \frac{4}{16} \div \frac{4}{4} = \frac{1}{4} [/tex]

  • 4.) [tex] \frac{15}{18} \div \frac{3}{3} = \frac{5}{6} [/tex]

  • 5.) [tex] \frac{6}{9} \div \frac{3}{3} = \frac{2}{3} [/tex]

How to find the lowest terms of fractions?

In finding the lowest terms of fractions you need to think what is the same largest divisible number by the numerator and denominator then you get the lowest term and if it is improper fraction you need to change it into mixed number.

How to change improper fraction into mixed number?

In changing improper fraction to mixed number you need to divide numerator by the denominator then the answer will be the whole number and the remainder will be the numerator by the same denominator.

Example:

  • 1.) [tex] \frac{9}{4} = 9 \div 4 = 2 \frac{1}{4} [/tex]

  • 2.) [tex] \frac{15}{6} = 15 \div 6 = 2 \frac{3}{6} [/tex]
