Question

What's 51/99 in simplest form?

Answer 1

51 / 99                      3 into 51 is 17 and 3 into 99 is 33

17 / 33                    No number can go simultaneously into 17 and 33.

= 17 / 33  in simplest form.

Hope this helped.

Answer 2

Both the numerator and denominator can be divided by three, so the simplest form is $\frac{17}{33}$.
