Question

What is 2/6 in simplest form? Find the greatest common factor of 2 and 6 and divide by that number. *

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

2 = 2 × 1

6 = 2 × 3

GCF = 2

$\frac{2 /2 }{6/2} =\frac{1}{3}$

Answer 2

Hi there!

I believe your answer is:  

$\boxed{\frac{1}{3}}$

Here’s why:  

• We would take the GCF of the two numbers in order to simplify.

$\boxed{\text{Simplify:}}\\\\\frac{2}{6}\\\\\boxed{\text{Finding the Factors:}}\\\\2: 2\\6 : 2,3\\\\\boxed{\text{The GCF would be 2.}}\\\\\frac{2}{6} =\frac{2/2}{6/2}=\boxed{\frac{1}{3}}$
