Question

How do I reduce 3/36

Answer 1

I would find a common factor between the numerator and the denominator.

Numerator:

1 and 3

Denominator:

1 and 36

2 and 18

3 and 12 <--

4 and 9

3 in the lowest comment multiple


`(3)/(36)`

3/3 = 1

36/3 = 12

So, the answer is
`(1)/(12)`

Answer 2

To simplify this fraction you would divide by the fraction 3/3 and this fraction would then reduce to 1/12
