Ok to reduce fractions you have the find the Greatest Common Factor of both the denominator and nominator and factor it out. In this case the GCF for 15 and 25 is 5 so you would divide 15 and 25 by 5 to get 3/5

Hi, thank you for posting your question here at Brainly.

This problem could be solved using the Law of Cosines, since we are given with the three sides. The equation goes,

b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2accosB. Substituting,

24^2 = 7^2 + 25^2 - 2(7)(25)cosB

Then B = 73.7 degrees. Therefore sinB or sin(73.7) = 0.96.
