48 decided by four is 12. 100 decided by 4 is 25. So the answer would be 12/25

Simplify:
(48)/(100)
Both the numerator and the denominator are divisable by 2.
So:

(48~ divided ~by~ 2)/(100 ~divided~ by~ 2)
(24)/(50)

Still this fraction can be reduced lower, so divide by two again.


(24 ~divided~ by ~2)/(50 ~divided~ by~ 2)
(12)/(25)

Now, your final answer that is reduced (simplified) down to its lowest terms would be:


(12)/(25)
