1. Simplifying Fractions
Let's go step by step to simplify fractions.
Step 1: Find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numerator and denominator.
Example: Simplify 6/8
Step 1: GCD of 6 and 8 is 2.
6/8
Step 2: Divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCD.
Example: 6 ÷ 2 = 3, 8 ÷ 2 = 4
3/4
Step 3: Now the fraction is simplified to 3/4.
