15. would be 1/2 because if you simplify 16/32 to 8/16 (dividing by 2 each time), then to 4/8, then 2/4, and lastly 1/2
you really dont need to do all of that because 16/32 is already 1/2 (16 is half of
32)
16. the answer would be 7/12 because if you divide 21/36 both by 3 you get 7/12 and you cant go any more simpler.
