Question

You can only divide a numerator and denominator one time when finding the simplest form.

Answer 1

False. Its as many times until you can no longer divide

Answer 2

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

• A fraction is in simplest form when the numerator and denominator cannot be further divide.
• To simplify a fraction: divide the numerator and denominator by the greatest number that will divide both numbers exactly.
• This, process is continued till we cannot find a common number to divide both numerator and the denominator.
• In order to do so we can divide the numerator and the denominator by the same number as many times we want until we reach the simplest form of the fraction.
• There is no such rule that we can only divide numerator and denominator one time when finding the simplest form.

Hence, the given statement is false.
