How to write fractions in simplest form? ( I give brainliest )

diamong [38]

It's pretty easy, take the example of this fraction... $\frac{2}{4}$

What you do in here is that you note down the factors of 2 and 4 over here.

Factors of 2 and 4:

2 = 1, 2

4 = 1, 2, 4

Now, you see that the GREATEST Common Factor (GCF) over here is 2.

Now that we see the GCF of 2 and 4 is 2, what you do next is, you have to divide 2 by 2 AND 4. When you do this, you will get your results. 2 = 1 and 4 = 2, now put this in the fraction form again, meaning switch 2 with 1, and 4 with 2 in the fractions... $\frac{1}{2}$
