- Answer: The fraction
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:
can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 5. Your simplified fraction would be
![(1)/(2)](https://img.qammunity.org/2020/formulas/mathematics/middle-school/ybjkeso7qr5r7js5h0mv9de35dih0sxfpl.png)
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)
