look for a number that divides into both the numerator and the denominator of your fraction.
If you can no longer find such a factor, your fraction is in simplest form.
e.g.
24/72
= 6/18 , I divided top and bottom by 4
= 2/6 , I divided top and bottom by 3
= 1/3, I divided top and bottom by 2
of course I could have divided top and bottom by 24 right away to get to the final fraction in one step.
I have to write my fraction in simplest form. How do I do that because I forgot.
