Step 1: <span>Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 70,105
</span>Method 1: By Listing FactorsList out all factors of each number, and find the first common one.
70: 1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 14,
35, 70
105: 1, 3, 5, 7, 15, 21,
35, 105
Therefore, the GCF is
35.
Method 2: By Prime FactorsList all prime factors of each denominator, and find the intersection of these primes.
70 : 2, 5, 7
105 : 3, 5, 7
<span>Therefore, the GCF is 5 x 7 = 35
</span>
Step 2: From above, the GCF is 35
35<span>Step 3: Divide the numerator (70) by the GCF
</span>
70 ÷ 35 = 2Step 4: <span>Divide the denominator (105) by the GCF
105 ÷ 35 = 3Step 5: </span><span>Rewrite the fraction in the simplified form
</span>
<span>
Done! :) our answer is 2/3 if you want this in decimal form the answer is 0.6667</span>
