To simplify a fraction you find the GCF (Greatest Common Factor) of the numerator and denominator.

To find the GCF find all the factors of both numbers and the factor that is highest is your GCF.

 Example: 6/15

6: 1, 2, 3, 6
15: 1, 3, 5, 15

Three is the GCF in this example.

To simplify, divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF.

Example: 6/15

6/3 = 2
15/3 = 5

6/15 = 2/5

Rashid [163]
When it comes to probability, the answer is always expressed as part of a whole. With that being said, your answer for this problem can be a ratio, fraction or in percentage. Probability is the study of finding the chances or odds of an event happening with the use of statistics. You are already given the statistics of baby girls and baby boys. Note that you are asked to find the probability of the baby being a girl. So, the part here includes the 248, while the whole is 248+13 = 261. Therefore, the probability is 248/261 or 0.95 or 95%. That means that the likelihood of having a girl baby using this technique is very high.
