Fraction: 203 / 500 = (7 * 29) / (22 * 53) is already reduced (simplified) to lowest terms, numerator and denominator are coprime numbers.

so 203/500
we factor out the ones (1/2=4/8 bec 1/2 times 4/4 (or 1)=4/8)
factor
203=7 times 29
500=2 times 2 times 5 times 5 times 5
there aren't any common factors in either of them so this is the simplest form
