How do I write a fraction in the simplest form

2 answers:

5 0

Simply just find the least common factor between the numerator and the denominator of the fraction, For example, 2/4, you know that between the two numbers, they both share the same common factor, 2, so divide 2 on the top and the bottom, and then your final answer would be 1/2. However, if there seems to be no common factor between the numerator and the denominator for a fraction, do not simplify it any more. You cannot have a decimal as a numerator or a denominator. For example, 3/5 has no common factor so you do not have to simplify it as it is already at its most simplest form.

Hope you found this helpful:)

Ask if the numerator and denominator can be divided by the same number, which is called a common factor.

See if at least one number in the fraction is a prime number.

A gumball machine has 140 red gumballs if the red gumballs are 25% of the total number of gumballs how many gumballs are in the

OlgaM077 [116]

Let's consider the total number of gumballs to be the variable g. Based on the problem, g * 1/4 = 140. Now, multiply by 4 on both sides to cancel the 1/4 to get g = 560.

Simplify.

Answer:

I hope this is the whole question

Step-by-step explanation:

Well I can only see one way and it is this...

$\sqrt{27a}$ = $\sqrt{3.3.3.a}$

= $3\sqrt{3a}$

I got rid of one perfect-square. I dont think you can do much more.

Three hamburgers and one milkshake cost $6.80. Two hamburgers and one milkshake cost $5.30

Each burger costs $1.50, and the milkshake costs $2.30. I subtracted the $6.80 from the $5.30, which shows the price of one burger.

1. Which of these transformations are isometries? The diagrams are not drawn to scale.

lisov135 [29]

In math, an isometry is a congruent transformation in which the distance (or length) and the angle is preserved or remains the same even after the transformation.

The transformation can be translation, rotation, reflection, etc.

Let us not use this definition of isometry to answer our question, one at a time.

(I) In here, as we can see the distances 10 and 5 and the angle 43 degrees has been preserved. So, this is an isometry.

(II) In here, distances have been halved, so this is not an isometry, even though the angles have been preserved.

(III) In here, the corresponding distances and the angles have been preserved. So, this is an isometry.
