The greatest common factor of 18 and 36 is 18.
So, 18 goes into 18 once, and 18 goes into 36 twice.
1/2 is the fraction in simplest form.
I believe it would be 0.08
Answer: -4/15
Step-by-step explanation: To add these two fractions together,
we start by finding their <em>Least Common Denominator</em> (LCD).
Since our denominators of 5 and 3 have no factors in common,
our least common denominator is 5 · 3 or 15.
In order to get a denominator of 15 in each fraction,
we multiply top and bottom of the first fraction by 3
and top and bottom of the second fraction by 5.
That gives us -9/15 + 5/15 which simplifies to -4/15.
As your last step, make sure that the fraction
that you end up with doesn't reduce.
In this case, -4/15 does not reduce but watch out for this last step.
