Simplify 4/96 in fractions?

Answer:

1/24

Explanation:

WHY?

To simplify a fraction, we have to check if the numerator and the denominator are divisible by the same number.

Here we have


(4)/(96)

They are even! We CAN simplify this fraction!

First, divide by 2.


(2)/(48)

And they are STILL even!

So, look:


(1)/(24)

Now we can't simplify this fraction. Their only common factor now is 1, and we could simplify this fraction forever with no result at all.

So 1/24 is the answer. I hope it helped you!
