  • Answer: The fraction
    (13)/(50) is already reduced to simplest form. The decimal equivalent of this fraction is 0.26

Explanation:

Reducing a fraction to its simplest form is done by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by the same number, which must divide into both evenly

  • Example:
    (5)/(10) can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 5. Your simplified fraction would be
    (1)/(2)

  • (13)/(50) has the prime number "13". This means to simplify the fraction, the denominator would have to be divisible by 13. 50 รท 13 = about 3.84, meaning this fraction is in its most simplified form; since 13 does not divide into 50 evenly (does not result in a whole number)

Hoped his helped!~
