Answer:

  Divide the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor.

Step-by-step explanation:

Example:

  38/57 = (2·19)/(3·19)

Dividing numerator and denominator by the factor 19 that is common to both, we have the simplest form:

  38/57 = 2/3

___

The process is aided immensely by you having mastery of your multiplication tables through at least 12×12, and by having a good feeling for the factorization of all numbers less than 100.

Some calculators work well with fractions, so can simplify them for you. If you don't have either of the above, then you need to have a good understanding of how to find the greatest common divisor of two numbers. Euclid's algorithm is a useful tool for this.

The seventh grade choir sold pizzas as a fundraiser. The choir teacher created the graph below for the students.
frez [133]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

We are trying to find the profit for every pizza sold. Since looking at the x axis, the point in which its x coordinate is 1 cannot be easily identified. Thus, we shall derive the answer using a point that can be easily identified.

We observe that the two points, (10,12) and (20,24) sits nicely on the graph. I will be using the first coordinate above to derive the answer.

For every 10 pizzas sold, $12 of profit is made.

10 pizzas ----- $12 profit

1 pizza ----- $12 ÷10= $1.20

Hence, the unit rate of profit for the pizzas is $1.20 per pizza.
