Seeing this question, I don't see any steps. I will solve this problem, so you could compare my step to the steps that you have on your worksheet. Then you could see what the missing step is.
5-8x<2x+3
1) 5-8x-2x<2x-2x+3
2) 5-10x< 3
3) 5-5-10x<3-5
4)-10x<-2
5) -10x/-10> -2/-10
6) x>1/5
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me. ;)

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The simplest form of the fraction $\frac{45}{100}$ is $\frac{9}{20}$ .

i.e.

$\frac{45}{100}=\frac{9}{20}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are some simple observations regarding how to reduce a fraction into simpler terms:

A fraction is reduced to lowest or simplest terms by finding an equivalent fraction in which the numerator and denominator are as small as possible.

In order to reduce a fraction to lowest or simplest terms, divide the numerator and denominator by their (GCF). Note that (GCF) is also called Greatest Common Factor .

So, lets take a sample fraction and reduce into simpler terms.

Considering the fraction

$\frac{45}{100}$
