Hello there, you can answer it like this:

25:45, you can turn into a fraction

25/45.

Now, you can divide 25 and 45 divided by the greatest number possible.

Answer: 5.

So, the greatest number is five and divide both of them by five.

25 ÷ 5 = 5

45 ÷ 5 = 9 .

Your answer is 5/9.

HOPE THIS HELPS.
