<span>To find the simplest form of a fraction, you have to find the greatest common factor (GCF). To do so, list out the factors of the numerator (15) and the denominator (45) and find the biggest common number between the two numbers.
</span>
Factors of 15: 1, 3, 5, 15
Factors of 45:  1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 45

Out of those factors, we can see that 1, 3, 5, and 15 are the common factors, but 15 is the greatest which makes it our GCF. 

Now we can divide the numerator and the denominator by the GCF to receive our simplest form.

15 ÷ 15 = 1
45 ÷ 15 = 3

Rewrite the fraction with the new numerator (1) and the new denominator (3).

The simplest form of 15/45 is: 1/3 or 0.3333.

3. Which temperature during the week is the closest to 0? Explain how you decided this using absolute value.
Katen [24]

Answer:

The closest temperature to zero during the week is -0.5 °F because it's absolute value, 0.5, is smaller than the other numbers.

The farthest temperature from zero during the week is 5 °F because it's absolute value, 5, is the highest out of all the other numbers.

Answer: The coldest temperature would be -4 °F, because it is the farthest number on the left side of zero on the number line.15-May-2020

The warmest temperature would be 5 °F, because it is the farthest number on the right side of zero on the number line.
