What is the simplest form of 6/18

2 Answers

to convert a fraction into simplest form, we divide both the numbers by their HCF

HCF of both these numbers is 6.

Thus we divide them by 6

6/6 = 1
18/6 = 3

Thus the answer is 1/3

All you have to do is divide both numbers (ones they both can go in).

Let's try 2.

6/2=3\\18/2=9

We get
(3)/(9).

A number still can go into both numbers evenly.
3 can go into both numbers.


3/3=1\\9/3=3
We finally get
(1)/(3).



Hope this helped :)
